*************************************
THE LOGIC FOLLOWED HERE IS :
1) LETTERS ARE CODED AS OPPOSITE POSITIONAL VALUE
2) THEN POSITIONAL VALUE SHIFTED DIAGONALLY
AS
S → (OPPOSITE LETTER POSITIONAL VALUE) → 8
T → (OPPOSITE LETTER POSITIONAL VALUE) → 7
A → (OPPOSITE LETTER POSITIONAL VALUE) → 26
R → (OPPOSITE LETTER POSITIONAL VALUE) → 9
87269 BECOMES 92678
AND
F → (OPPOSITE LETTER POSITIONAL VALUE) → 21
L → (OPPOSITE LETTER POSITIONAL VALUE) → 15
A → (OPPOSITE LETTER POSITIONAL VALUE) → 26
G → (OPPOSITE LETTER POSITIONAL VALUE) → 20
21152620 BECOMES 20161521
SIMILARLY
L → (OPPOSITE LETTER POSITIONAL VALUE) → 15
O → (OPPOSITE LETTER POSITIONAL VALUE) →12
G → (OPPOSITE LETTER POSITIONAL VALUE) → 20
O → (OPPOSITE LETTER POSITIONAL VALUE) → 15
15122015 BECOMES 15201215
