/**
* The Atbash cipher is a simple substitution cipher that replaces each letter
* in the alphabet with its reverse.
* For example, 'A' becomes 'Z', 'B' becomes 'Y', and so on. It works
* identically for both uppercase and lowercase letters.
* It's a symmetric cipher, meaning applying it twice returns the original text.
* Hence, the encrypting and the decrypting functions are identical

* The Atbash cipher is a classic substitution cipher that substitutes each letter
* with its opposite letter in the alphabet.
*
* For example:
* - 'A' becomes 'Z', 'B' becomes 'Y', 'C' becomes 'X', and so on.
* - Similarly, 'a' becomes 'z', 'b' becomes 'y', and so on.
*
* The cipher works identically for both uppercase and lowercase letters.
* Non-alphabetical characters remain unchanged in the output.
*
* This cipher is symmetric, meaning that applying the cipher twice will return
* the original text. Therefore, the same function is used for both encryption and decryption.
*
* <p>Usage Example:</p>
* <pre>
* AtbashCipher cipher = new AtbashCipher("Hello World!");
* String encrypted = cipher.convert(); // Output: "Svool Dliow!"
* </pre>
