Coding and Decoding

Coding and Decoding

Coding is a process used to encrypt a word, a number in a particular code or pattern based on some
set of rules.
Decoding is a process to decrypt the pattern into its original form from the given codes.
Letter Coding Alphabets of a word are replaced by some other alphabets according to specific rule to
form code.
Number Coding A word is replaced by certain numbers according to some specific rule.
Example:
B O M B is written as 5745 and B A Y is written as 529 -> B O M B A Y
5745 529 574529
