Now that we know how to convert from English to Pig Latin, can we reverse the translation? Given a sentence in Pig Latin, reverse it and try to find the original English text.
Be careful to note that if a Pig Latin word is capitalized, like "Arispay", the original English word is "Paris" rather than "pAris". Case counts!
ID: piglatin2
Input: A sentence in Pig Latin.
Output: The translation in English.
Read the input from a file called piglatin2.in that's in the current working directory, and then write your output to a file called piglatin2.out.
Work backwards! You'll probably need the chr() and ord() functions! Also, string splicing is pretty cool in Python ;)
file1 = open("piglatin2.in", 'r')
s = file1.read().strip()
words = s.split(" ")
final = list()
for x in range(len(words)):
if words[x][-3:] == "yay":
final.append(words[x][:-3])
elif words[x][-3:-2] != "y":
if ord(words[x][:1]) >= 65 and ord(words[x][:1]) <= 90: #if capital first letter
final.append(chr(ord(words[x][-3:-2]) - 32) + chr(ord(words[x][:1]) + 32) + words[x][1:-3])
else: #if lowercase first letter
final.append(words[x][-3:-2] + words[x][:-3])
result = " ".join(final)
file2 = open("piglatin2.out", 'w')
file2.write(result + "\n")
file1.close()
file2.close()easyctf{th0se_pesky_capit4ls_were_a_pa1n,_weren't_they?}
