What is a reciprocal alphabet?
Definition: A reciprocal alphabet is a ciphering alphabet in which if a plain letter A is crypted by X, then the plain letter X is crypted A.
Example: DCOEABFGHIJKLMNPQRSTUVWXYZ is a reciprocal alphabet, DCODE is crypted as MNPMQ and MNPMQ is crypted as DCODE

Using a key helps to scramble the letters in the alphabet with a single keyword to remember
Example: DCOEABFGHIJKLMNPQRSTUVWXYZ is a deranged alphabet generated with key DCODE.
