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

THE LOGIC FOLLOWED HERE IS :

D (4) → (OPPOSITE) → 23

I (9) → (OPPOSITE) → 18

S (19) → (OPPOSITE) → 8

K ( 11) → (OPPOSITE) → 16

23 + 18 + 8 + 16  = 65

AND

W (23) → (OPPOSITE) → 4

I (9) → (OPPOSITE) → 18

R (18) → (OPPOSITE) → 9

E ( 5) → (OPPOSITE) → 22

4 + 18 + 9 + 22 = 53

SIMILARLY

C (3) → (OPPOSITE) → 24

E (5) → (OPPOSITE) → 22

L (12) → (OPPOSITE) → 15

L ( 12) → (OPPOSITE) → 15

24 + 22 + 15 + 15 = 76
