Program gives error but doesn't say where the error is.

You are going to have to be more specific about how you are testing it. It works fine when I run it. That doesn't look like an error, it looks like the repr for an instance of w_encryption. My guess is your test is returning the encryption object when it should be returning the encrypted text.

Edit: for example:

Output:
>>> test = w_encryption('Avalokiteshvara')
>>> test._encrypt_()
'14061962245146643241220108292105138248193963515807825'
>>> test
<__main__.w_encryption instance at 0x0000000003988548>

Thanks for your response!

I was doing:

test = w_encryption('hello')
test._encrypt_()
print(test)

Haha that's why I got "<__main__.w_encryption instance at 0x0000000003988548>" in response.

You can save yourself a whole lot of lines of code by using a dictionary

encr_dict={'a':(1, 50)
           'b':(300, 400)}
if echar in encr_dict:
    echar = randint(encr_dict(echar))
    self.encrypted.append(echar)


## etc
## replaces 
            if character == 'a':
                echar = randint(1, 50)
                self.encrypted.append(echar)
            elif character == 'b':
                echar = randint(300, 400)
                self.encrypted.append(echar)  

Finally, how are you going to decode it since you don't know which random number was used to encode it?

Thanks for your response!
But I already wrote the code for 80+ characters. Haha
