INTRODUCTION:
It is based upon understanding of the position of letters and numbers with their respective values.
More clearly, alphabet test is based upon the usages of alphabetical order which consists 26 letters
of alphabet i.e., A to Z while numeric test is based upon the jumbling of numbers and set of
numbers. Some of the essential points regarding alphabet test and number test are explored as under.

INTRODUCTION:
The term Coding-Decoding relates with message sent in secret form which cannot be understood
by others. In the process of Coding-Decoding two parties are involved in them one is called
sender and another one is called receiver. A sender is a person who sends the message in coded
form and a receiver is a person who breaks the code to get the original form.
Coding
It is the process of converting a piece of information into another form of representation
through signals.
Decoding
It is the process of converting codes back into a form that the recipient can understand.
