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

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

THE LOGIC FOLLOWED HERE IS :

ADDITION OF THE PLACE VALUE OF ALPHABET + 2 = CODE

AS

TYR+ 2

= (20 + 25 +  18 )+ 2

= 63 + 2 = 65

AND

GAP +2

= (7 + 1 + 16 )+ 2

= 24 + 2 = 26

SIMILARLY

MOJ + 2

= (13 + 15  + 10)  + 2

= 38 + 2

= 40
