Question
In a certain code language, 'BRIGHT' is coded as
'EUECMY'. How will 'STREAM' be coded in that language?Solution
The logic followed here is as follows: The first 2 letters are replaced with their 3rd succeeding letter (+3) as per English alphabetical order. The next two letters are replaced with their 4th preceding letter (-4) as per English alphabetical order. The last two letters are replaced with their 5th succeeding letter (+5) as per English alphabetical order. For 'BRIGHT': B + 3 = E R + 3 = U I - 4 = E G - 4 = C H + 5 = M T + 5 = Y Similarly, for 'STREAM': S + 3 = V T + 3 = W R - 4 = N E - 4 = A A + 5 = F M + 5 = R So, 'STREAM' is coded as 'VWNAFR'.
