A code first writes a word in reverse and then moves each letter one step backward in the alphabet. For example, 'FISH' is coded as 'GRHE' (reverse HSIF, then H becomes G, S becomes R, I becomes H, F becomes E). Using the same rule, how is 'DESK' written?

Question

Accepted Answer

JRDC. Reversing DESK gives KSED; moving each letter back one step, K becomes J, S becomes R, E becomes D, D becomes C, giving 'JRDC'.
