[C#] Using a custom encoding method

[Adil]

Long story short, I'm designing an encryption/encoding program, to encrypt/encode a string of alphanumerical characters. I've come across an obstacle, which I'm unsure about.

class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)


        {
            string JokerCode;
            Console.ForegroundColor = ConsoleColor.Yellow;
            Console.WriteLine("JokerCrypter\n");
            JokerCode = Console.ReadLine();
            Console.WriteLine("Your string={0}", JokerCode //could I return encoded, to encode the string?);
            Console.WriteLine("Enter to escape\n");
            Console.ReadLine();
            


        }

So what I want to do is return the user input with an encrypted string. Would I have to define the encoding in a class or separate file?
e.g

// a = 21

Yeah, you would mate.

 

[Adil]

Yeah, you would mate.

I need to define each character, and then define their encoded form

Indeed, I presume you're going to do it like MD5? Only more "complex"?

lmfao, no thanks . It'll be something like

a = &12%

 

[Ayumi]

lmfao, no thanks . It'll be something like

a = &12%

Adil, I expect more from you . Simple codes aren't very nice, tututut

lol, it's one character dude.

Hmm, why not uses the ASCII encoding? or this method.
