In addition to the code, I can provide the contents of three files that the scripts work with.

The source file "puzzle" to be read by the script "RSA_encrypt_test.pl":

Hello!!!

The "puzzle.encrypt" file that is generated by the "RSA_encrypt_test.pl" script:

pG+┼V▄læ║┌▄28≈é)E@▀1u┐[/ⁿ▄n,╘k╗µç7╚╝└m«wI╠╬Ñ«▌C,▄ I

The "puzzle.decrypt" file that is generated by the "RSA_decrypt_test.pl" script:

3┴Γ`Æ$├Ç⌐»óñ¼\4kôT¢H"¿▀┐±ë┘═I<Θ è▐ì▄SlpçÆΘYÖHA╬{≥─╧⌠FvO%}╓<

Thus, you can see that the decryption script is not working. Since it does not decrypt the ciphertext "Hello!!!" correctly

What information may not yet be understood?
