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 GIVEN
FROST
6 + 18 + 15 + 19 + 20 = 78
= 78 × 2
= 156
AND
CANDLE
3 + 1 + 14 + 4 + 12 + 5
= 39 × 2 = 78
SIMILARLY
SCREAM
19 + 3 + 18 + 5 + 1 + 13
= 59
= 59 × 2 = 118
