char: h encrypted text: k

Your code so far

text = 'Hello World'
shift = 3
alphabet = 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'
encrypted_text = ''

# User Editable Region

for char in text.lower():
    index = alphabet.find(char)
    new_index = index + shift
    encrypted_text = alphabet[new_index] + encrypted_text
