# --description--

Implementa le funzioni per crittografare e decrittografare un messaggio usando il metodo [straddling checkerboard](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straddling_checkerboard). Le funzioni prenderanno una stringa e un array come parametri. L'array ha 3 stringhe che rappresentano le 3 righe della scacchiera. L'output sarà una serie di cifre decimali. I numeri devono essere cifrati inserendo il carattere di escape prima di ogni cifra, quindi includendo la cifra non cifrata. Questo dovrebbe essere invertito per la decifratura.

`straddle` dovrebbe essere una funzione.

```js
assert(typeof straddle == 'function');
```

`straddle("One night-it was on the twentieth of March, 1888-I was returning.",["ESTONIA  R", "BCDFGHJKLM", "PQUVWXYZ./"])` dovrebbe restituire una stringa.

```js
assert(
  typeof straddle(
    'One night-it was on the twentieth of March, 1888-I was returning.',
    ['ESTONIA  R', 'BCDFGHJKLM', 'PQUVWXYZ./']
  ) == 'string'
);
```

`straddle("One night-it was on the twentieth of March, 1888-I was returning.",["ESTONIA  R", "BCDFGHJKLM", "PQUVWXYZ./"])` dovrebbe restituire `"34045747525284613427502840425027537379697175891898898898584619028294547488"`.

```js
assert.equal(

);
```

`straddle("One night-it was on the twentieth of March, 1888-I was returning",["HOL MES RT", "ABCDFGIJKN", "PQUVWXYZ./"])` dovrebbe restituire `"139539363509369743061399059745399365901344308320791798798798367430685972839363935"`.

`straddle("Thecheckerboardcakerecipespecifies3largeeggsand2.25cupsofflour.",["ET AON RIS", "BCDFGHJKLM", "PQ/UVWXYZ."])` dovrebbe restituire `"125021250212707204372221327070218600960021823809623283724002424935226226962262521636094232328463769"`.

```

`unstraddle` dovrebbe essere una funzione.

```js
assert(typeof unstraddle == 'function');
```

`unstraddle("34045747525284613427502840425027537379697175891898898898584619028294547488",["ESTONIA  R", "BCDFGHJKLM", "PQUVWXYZ./"])` dovrebbe restituire una stringa.
