***********************************************
THE LOGIC FOLLOWED HERE IS:
REVERSE THE APLHABET AND INDICATE WITH PLACE VALUE
POEM = MEOP.
M → PLACE VALUE → 13
E → PLACE VALUE → 5
O → PLACE VALUE → 15
P → PLACE VALUE → 16
AND,
ROB = BOR
B → PLACE VALUE → 2
O → PLACE VALUE → 15
R → PLACE VALUE → 18
SIMILARLY
MAID = DIAM
D → PLACE VALUE → 4
I → PLACE VALUE → 9
A → PLACE VALUE → 1
M → PLACE VALUE → 13
