Hill Cipher:
The below defined class 'HillCipher' implements the Hill Cipher algorithm.
The Hill Cipher is an algorithm that implements modern linear algebra techniques
In this algortihm, you have an encryption key matrix. This is what will be used
in encoding and decoding your text.

Algortihm:
Let the order of the encryption key be N (as it is a square matrix).
Your text is divided into batches of length N and converted to numerical vectors
by a simple mapping starting with A=0 and so on.

The key is then mulitplied with the newly created batch vector to obtain the
encoded vector. After each multiplication modular 36 calculations are performed
on the vectors so as to bring the numbers between 0 and 36 and then mapped with
their corresponding alphanumerics.

While decrypting, the decrypting key is found which is the inverse of the
encrypting key modular 36. The same process is repeated for decrypting to get
the original message back.

Constraints:
The determinant of the encryption key matrix must be relatively prime w.r.t 36.

Note:
The algorithm implemented in this code considers only alphanumerics in the text.
If the length of the text to be encrypted is not a multiple of the
break key(the length of one batch of letters),the last character of the text
is added to the text until the length of the text reaches a multiple of
the break_key. So the text after decrypting might be a little different than
the original text.
