Swapping characters in Strings Python

Question

I have been trying to make something like an encoder:

here is my idea

dict = {
    1: "!",
    2: "@"
}

in = 21 # Input number in

out = ?

print(out) # Returns "@!"

Is there any way I could perform this?

What you want is exactly the translate function of str:

x="12"
y="!@"
in=12
txt=str(in)
mapping = txt.maketrans(x, y)
out=txt.translate(mapping)

You can check the complete reference here.
