One possible way to create a word puzzle is to take the characters of the word, and re-arrange them in some random fashion. This is known as a transposition cipher, and is typically used to create word jumbles that you have likely seen in a newspaper. In this post-lab, you will demonstrate your knowledge of strings by writing a function that can perform a transposition on text.
Details
Write a function called transpose_characters(text),
which has one parameter, a string of text. It should return a
string with the same letters as the input string but in a random
order.
Make sure your program handles all necessary cases gracefully. What additional test cases should you check?
Sample Test Cases
| Function Parameters | Sample Output |
|---|---|
| "Scotty" | Scytot |
| "Bouchard" | hordcuBa |
