I am stuck in this example. Whenever I put the keyword 'bacon' I get the wrong answer. Any idea why this is happening? I can't find the bug and I have tried a lot. Can you please help me?
When I run this: ./vigenere bacon
and input the text Meet me at the park at eleven am
the answer should be Negh zf av huf pcfx bt gzrwep oz
, but instead I get Negh ne og tjs qaty bt syfvgb bm
Update: I made some changes as suggested by the comments but still having the same problem.

{
//check if it has only two values
if (argc != 2)
{
printf("Usage: ./vigenere keyword\n");
return 1;
}

char *keyword = argv[1];
int keylen = strlen(keyword);
for (int i = 0, n = keylen; i < n; i++)
{
if(!isalpha(keyword[i]))
{
printf("alphabetic keyword only!!!\n");
return 1;
}
if(isalpha(keyword[i]))
{
// if a letter of keyword is uppercase
if (isupper(keyword[i]))
{
keyword[i] = keyword[i] - 'A';
}
// if a letter of keyword is lowercase
if (islower(keyword[i]))
{
keyword[i] = keyword[i] - 'a';
}
}
}
char *text = GetString();
for (int i = 0, n = strlen(text); i < n; i++)
{
if (isalpha(text[i]))
{
// if plaintext letter uppercase then...
if (isupper(text[i]))
{
text[i] = ((text[i] - 'A') + (keyword[i % keylen])) % 26 + 'A';
printf("%c",text[i]);
// ^^^^^^ ----> repeat the pattern
}
// if plaintext letter lowercase then ...
if (islower(text[i]))
{
text[i] = ((text[i] - 'a') + (keyword[i % keylen])) % 26 + 'a';
printf("%c",text[i]);
}
}
// if no letters in plaintext then ...
if (!isalpha(text[i]))
{
text[i] = text[i];
printf("%c",text[i]);

printf("\n");
