Description
Hello,
I'm nowhere near to be good neither at Github nor at Python. But in your Ceaser decipher script, I saw that you used nested if-else if blocks instead of using the more suitable if-elif conditions. I thought that would be better both for you and for the readability of the code. Whatever you choose to do so, I wish you a good day.
