Write a Java program to encrypt and decrypt a phrase using two similar approaches, each insecure by modern standards. The first approach is called the Caesar Cipher, and is a simple "substitution cipher" where characters in a message are replaced by a substitute character. The second approach, due to Giovan Battista Bellaso (b 1505, d 1581), uses a key word, where each character in the word specifies the offset for the corresponding character in the message, with the key word wrapping around as needed.

plainText is the string to be encrypted. The method returns true if all

characters are within the allowable bounds, false if any character is outside.*/
