are you perhaps using an UTF-8 editor?
to keep your sanity, no matter what editor you're using, I recommend
adding a coding directive to the source file, and using *only* Unicode

Thank you for your answers.
In fact, I'm getting start with Python.
I was looking for transform a text through elementary cryptographic

The initial text is in a file, and my system is under UTF-8 by default
