In a certain code language, 'SMART' is coded as 'TLBQU' and

Solution

The letters in the word follow an alternating +1 and -1 pattern based on their position. 1st, 3rd, and 5th letter move to the immediate succeeding letter (+1) and 2nd and 4th letters move to the immediate preceding letter (-1). SMART S (+1) = T M (-1) = L A (+1) = B R (-1) = Q T (+1) = U SMART is written as TLBQU. Word: PRIDE P (+1) = Q R (-1) = Q I (+1) = J D – 1= C E + 1 = F PRIDE is written as QQJCF. GLOVE: G + 1 = H L – 1 = K O +1 = P V – 1 = U E + 1 = F GLOVE is written as HKPUF.
