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

THE LOGIC FOLLOWED HERE IS :

ADDITION OF POSITIONAL VALUE

AS

STEAMER

S =19

T = 20

E = 5

A = 1

M = 13

E = 5

R = 18

19 + 20 + 5 + 1 + 13 + 5 + 18 = 81

AND

CRUISE

C = 3

R = 18

U = 21

I = 9

S = 19

E = 5

3 + 18 + 21 + 9 + 19 + 5 = 75

SIMILARLY

SUBMARINE

S = 19

U = 21

B = 2

M = 13

A = 1

R = 18

I = 9

N = 14

E = 5

19 + 21 + 2 + 13 + 1 + 18+  9 + 14 + 5 = 102
