simple-cipher: fix the description #404

Description

@jtigger

The framing for this exercise can be frustrating, confusing. Here's a laundry list of things that, if fixed, would improve that experience:

  • The reference to image of Caesar Cipher is broken. If that plotline is kept, fix the reference (e.g. link to a stable source).
  • The goal and supporting plotline are a bit scattered. There's a hint of a plotline of keeping your little sister from reading something; perhaps go all-in on that narrative and trim off others?
  • This exercise is suddenly overwhelming in size with no explanation. Motivate the 3 iteration exercise — or at least telegraph the general structure of the exercise.
  • The description runs-on into the the concatenated "how-to-run-the-tests" chunk that follows. Given that this is a multi-parter, put an ---- at the bottom to separate the last section from track-specific instructions.
