What's the difference between build_coder(shift) and build_encoder(shift)? Both seem to operate the same.

Hey Takii, I'm stuck on this as well. Would love an answer here (I don't want to look at the solution code). So far, my build_encoder code is simply: return build_coder(shift)

I'm not sure if that's correct but given the explanation provided in the files I can't think of what else is meant to go there...

My code is exactly the same.... Well, I guess I need to check the answer key soon.
