Title: "How is 'flower' coded if 'gamble' becomes 'fblckf'? Indian Game Solution
Step-by-Step Explanation:
Analyze the Pattern:
Original: G A M B L E
Encoded: F B L C K F
Break down each letter's position and transformation:
G (7) → F (6): Position 1 (odd) → Subtract 1
A (1) → B (2): Position 2 (even) → Add 1
M (13) → L (12): Position 3 (odd) → Subtract 1
B (2) → C (3): Position 4 (even) → Add 1
L (12) → K (11): Position 5 (odd) → Subtract 1
E (5) → F (6): Position 6 (even) → Add 1
Rule:
Odd positions (1,3,5...): Subtract 1 from the alphabet position.
Even positions (2,4,6...): Add 1 to the alphabet position.
Apply the Rule to "FLOWER":
F (6) → Position 1 (Odd): 6 - 1 = E (5)
L (12) → Position 2 (Even): 12 + 1 = M (13)
O (15) → Position 3 (Odd): 15 - 1 = N (14)
W (23) → Position 4 (Even): 23 + 1 = X (24)
E (5) → Position 5 (Odd): 5 - 1 = D (4)
R (18) → Position 6 (Even): 18 + 1 = S (19)
Encoded Result:
F L O W E R → E M N X D S
Final Coded Word: "EMNXDS"
Answer:
In this Indian game cipher, "flower" is coded as EMNXDS. The rule alternates shifting letters: subtract 1 for odd positions and add 1 for even positions in the alphabet.
