26  25  24  23  22  21  20  19  18  17  16  15  14

*************************************

THE LOGIC FOLLOWED HERE IS :

SUM OF THE POSITIONAL VALUE × 2 = CODE

AS

TOP

= T + O  + P

= 20 + 15 +16  = 51

= 51 × 2

= 102

AND

BAD

= B + A + D

= 3 + 1 + 4  = 8

= 8 × 2

= 16

SIMILARLY

DOG

= D + O + G

= 4 + 15 + 7  = 26

= 26  × 2

= 52
