It is a method of sending amessage between sender and the receiver insuch a way that only the sender and the receivercan know its meaning. However Coding is doneaccording a certain pattern in the mind of thesender. Therefore, its meaning can be decipheredby a third person.

8 Only if he carefully studies thispattern. This process is called Decoding . Thiscapability is important in many fields of application. The Coding- Decoding test is set up tojudge the candidate s ability to decipher thepattern which goes behind a coded message orstatement. There are many types of coding: CODINGIn such questions, code values are assignedto a word in terms of the alphabets. There arefollowing types of letter coding. Type 1 : In this category, one word is codedaccording to a particular pattern and the candidateis asked to give the code letters for another wordfollowing the same pattern of coding. word MAN is coded as of the following should be the codefor SKY? first letter of the code N comes afterM. the first letter of the word in question. Similarly,the second letter B comes next to A of thequestion, and the third letter of code O comesafter N of the main word.

9 Following this patternwe can say that TLZ is coded as SKY. LETTER AND NUMERICAL CODINGIn these questions either numerical valuesare assigned to a word or alphabetical code valuesare assigned to the numbers. The candidate isrequired to analyze the code according to a given code SISTER is coded as535301. UNCLE as 84670 and BOY as 129.
