For conveying secret messages from one place to another , especially in Defense Services, Research and Analysis Wing (RAW), coding is used. The codes are based on various principles/patterns such that the message can be easily be deciphered at the other end. Now-a-days, in certain competitive examinations, such questions are given to judge the candidates intelligence and mental ability.

Letter Coding Decoding - Forward Sequence : This is the pattern of coding which exhibits the correlation of letter in the alphabetical order. For instance, alphabets A to Z are assigned the numeric codes from 1 to 26 where each letter gets the assignment in the pattern as follow A = 1, B = 2, C = 3, etc.
Example 1 : If LOFTY is coded as LPFUY, then DWARF will be written as :'
(A) DXASF (B) DXBSG (C) DXATF (D) DWBSG
Solution : According to the question , adding alternately 0 and 1 to the alphabets will get you the answer :
Similarly, D + 0 = D, W + 1 = X , A + 0 = A , R + 1 = S and F + 0 = F . Hence the answer is DXASF, option A.
Example 2 : In a certain code language, ‘PICTURE’ is written as ‘QJDUVSF’. How would ‘BROWSER’ be written in that same code language?
(A) CQVVTDS (B) CQPVTDS (C) CSPXTFS (D) CQVPPDS (e) None of these
Answer : (C)
Solution : Clearly, the letters in the word PICTURE are moved one step forward to obtain the letters of the code. Thus, we have :
Similarly, for ‘BROWSER :
Example 3 : In a certain code, TEACHER is written as VGCEJGT. How is CHILDREN written in that code ?
(a) EJKNEGTP (b) EGKNFITP (c) EJKNFGTO (d) EJKNFTGP
Answer : (d)
Solution : Clearly, each letter in the word TEACHER is moved two steps forward to obtain the corresponding letter of the code.
T +2 = V ( 22)
E +2 = H (7)
A +2 = C (3)
C +2 = E (5)
H +2 = J (10)
E +2 = G (7)
R +2 = T (20)
Similarly, we have,
C +2 = E (5)
H +2 = J (10)
I +2 = K (11)
L +2 = N (14)
D +2 = F (6)
R +2 = T (20)
E +2 = G (7)
N +2 = P (16)
So, the desired code is EJKNFTGP.
Example 4 : In a certain code language, RUSTICATE, is written as QTTUIDBSD. How would STATISTIC be written in that code ?
(a) RSBUJTUHB (b) RSBUITUHB (c) RSBUIRSJD (d) TUBUIDBSD
Answer : (b)
Solution : Clearly, the middle letter of the word remains unchanged in the code. Each of the first two and the last letters of the word is moved one step backward, while each of the remaining letters is moved one step forward to obtain the corresponding letters of the code.
R - 1 = Q
U - 1 = T
S +1 = T
T +1 = U
I + 0= I
C +1 = D
A +1 = B
T -1 = S
E - 1 = D
Similarly, we have ,
S - 1 = R
T - 1 = S
A +1 = B
T +1 = U
I +0 = I
S + 1 = T
T +1 = U
I -1 = H
C -1 = B
So, the required code is RSBUITUHB.
Example 5 : If ROAST is coded as PQYUR in a certain language, then how will SLOPPY be coded in that language ?
(a) MRNAQN (b) NRMNQA (c) QNMRNA (d) RANNMQ
Answer : (c)
Solution : Clearly, the letters in the word ROAST are moved alternately two step backward and two step forward to obtain the letters of the code. Thus, we have :
R -2 = P
O +2 = Q
A - 2 = Y
S + 2 = U
T - 2 = R
Similarly, we have ,
S -2 = Q
L +2 = N
O -2 = M
P +2 = R
P -2 = N
Y +2 = A
So, the required code is QNMRNA.

It was a good experience with Abhyas Academy. I even faced problems in starting but slowly and steadily overcomed. Especially reasoning classes helped me a lot.
Abhyas Methodology is very good. It is based on according to student and each child manages accordingly to its properly. Methodology has improved the abilities of students to shine them in future.
A marvelous experience with Abhyas. I am glad to share that my ward has achieved more than enough at the Ambala ABHYAS centre. Years have passed on and more and more he has gained. May the centre flourish and develop day by day by the grace of God.
Abhyas is a complete education Institute. Here extreme care is taken by teacher with the help of regular exam. Extra classes also conducted by the institute, if the student is weak.
It has a great methodology. Students here can get analysis to their test quickly.We can learn easily through PPTs and the testing methods are good. We know that where we have to practice
Being a parent, I saw my daughter improvement in her studies by seeing a good result in all day to day compititive exam TMO, NSO, IEO etc and as well as studies. I have got a fruitful result from my daughter.
One of the best institutes to develope a child interest in studies.Provides SST and English knowledge also unlike other institutes. Teachers are co operative and friendly online tests andPPT develope practical knowledge also.
My experience with Abhyas is very good. I have learnt many things here like vedic maths and reasoning also. Teachers here first take our doubts and then there are assignments to verify our weak points.
I have spent a wonderful time in Abhyas academy. It has made my reasoning more apt, English more stronger and Maths an interesting subject for me. It has given me a habbit of self studying
My experience with Abhyas academy is very good. I did not think that my every subject coming here will be so strong. The main thing is that the online tests had made me learn here more things.
