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

THE LOGIC FOLLOWED HERE IS :

REVERSE THE WORD

EVERY LETTER IS CODED WITH POSITIONAL VALUE

AS

TRAIN = NIART

N→ (PLACE VALUE) → 14

I → (PLACE VALUE) → 9

A → (PLACE VALUE) → 1

R → (PLACE VALUE) → 18

T → (PLACE VALUE) → 20

AND

POLIT = TILOP

T → (PLACE VALUE) → 20

I → (PLACE VALUE) → 9

L → (PLACE VALUE) → 12

O → (PLACE VALUE) → 15

P → (PLACE VALUE) → 16

SIMILARLY

SHAKE = EKAHS

E → (PLACE VALUE) → 5

K → (PLACE VALUE) → 11

A → (PLACE VALUE) → 1

H → (PLACE VALUE) → 8

S → (PLACE VALUE) → 19
