Section Three Coding and Decoding Tests Codes are used for conveying secret messages from one place to another, especially in the defence services. These codes are based on various principles/patterns, which are required to be deciphered by the receiver, so as to get the correct message. Coding and decoding tests are becoming very popular in competitive examinations. ‘They call for careful observation and analytical aptitude. These tests can be broadly classified into several Categories. LETTERCODING The letters of the alphabet may be used in the coding scheme. The letters to be coded are allotted other letters to stand for them, Questions on lettercoding can be of different types. Examples of the important ones are given below. Analogical Lettercoding These codes are based on the analogy given in the question itself as shown below. Form 1 ere :vemeann © Example i ‘spTra’ stands for ‘BLADE’, how will you code Answer ‘SIPA’. Explanation ‘BLADE’ has been coded as ‘SPTFA’, You will see that all the letters in the word “BALE’, which have to be coded, are also there in the word BLADE’. Hence all that needs to be done is to choose the relevant code letters fom the code word ‘SPTFA’, Thus, B becomes S, A becomes'T, becomes P and E A. Therefore ‘BALE will be coded as ‘STPA*, f © Exercises ' MODERN’ and ‘ORTHODOXY’ (being opposites) are coded as . ‘BALE’?

Here, each letter is coded by the next in alphabetic sequence, with the last letter of the alphabet ‘Z’ becoming the first, ‘A’.

Decode the underlined letters in column | from the same row of choices provided under column II. Each small letter in column II stands for some capital letter in column I, However, the small letters in column II are not arranged in the same order as their corresponding letters in column I, The code is the same for all the items in column I Column I Column II 1, GMSAY uagms 2 BSMYA sgmvu 3. CMAYB wgusv 4, NGMSY saghm 5, SYNAJ mhuds Answer G=a;B=v;C=w,;N=h,J=d Explanation 1 i) Look at items 1 and 2 of column I ‘GMSAY’ and ‘BSMYA’. The letters MSAY occur in both items, This means that four letters of the codes of items 1 and 2 must be the same. il) Look at the codes of items 1 and 2 in column II. The letters u, g, m and s occur in both. Thus the code for ‘G’ is ‘a’ and the code for ‘B’ is ‘v’. it) Look at item 3 ‘CMAYB’. ‘The letters M, A, Y, and B occurred in earlier items. Thus the code for ‘C’ must be a letter which did not appear in the earlier codes. | ‘Thus the code for ‘C’ is ‘w’. iv) Look at item 4 NGMSY The letters G, M, S and Y occurred in earlier items. ‘Thus the code for ‘N’ must be a letter which did not appear in the earlier codes. A search for such a letter leads you to *h’. v) Look at item 5 SYNAJ ‘The letters S, Y, N and A occurred in earlier items. Thus the code for ‘J’ must be a letter which did not appear in earlier codes, Thus the code for ‘J" is ‘d° Explanation 2 Another quick way of solving these problems is as follo) {) Question | requires you to find the code for 'G’, Look for G in of find it in 4, Therefore, there must be at least one common, letters of items 1 and 4, Write down the code letters 88 Mental Ability and Quantitative Aptitude agms itl) “G? does not occur in items 2, 3 and 5.
