Playfair cipher
Implement a Playfair cipher encryption and decryption.
The user must be able to choose J = I or no Q in the alphabet. The output of the encrypted message must be in capitalized digraphs, separated by spaces.
Output example: HI DE TH EG OL DI NT HE TR EX ES TU MP.
Perl 6
<lang perl6># Instantiate a specific encoder/decoder.
