Question

How am I gonna go about it pls

Answer 1

Fortunate Oyeyemi ,
besides the suggestions you already got, the task can be done also by using a dictionary. this has to be like: {'a': 'z', 'b': 'y', ..., 'z': 'a'}, and can be used as lookup table. by getting an input of 'a' it will return 'z', ...
steps:
- take an input
- create a string variable with the letters from 'a ... z'
- the dictionary can be created by using the dict() constructor, with the letter string and a reverse of the letter string, and put together by using
the zip() function
- now characters can be read from the input string using a for loop. each character is now used to get the reversed letter
version from the dictionary. so we can create a new string. (this complete step can also be done with a list comprehension)
- finally output of the new string

I had a look at your profile and can't see where you have commenced a Python tutorial, so I would suggest you start with Python for Beginners, followed by Intermediate Python.
You will then know how to do this

Answer 3

I have already commenced a python tutorial so I'll just continue as u have suggested

List Slicing will provide your answer.
Just remember that lists & strings can both be sliced, and manipulated using the same syntax
