This document discusses different types of coding and decoding questions that commonly appear on banking and law entrance exams. It outlines six types of coding questions and focuses on symbol coding and decoding. For symbol coding, symbols are assigned to letters or vice versa. An example problem is given where certain words are written with symbols and the candidate must write another word using that code. For decoding, code values are assigned to words and the candidate must determine the original word. Two example decoding problems are provided.

1. Coding & Decoding
Reasoning Tricks

2.  These type of questions are generally asked in Banking Exams
and certain entrances like KLEE, CLAT etc. which have a
reasoning part.
 These questions are very easy to answer but you should know
the strategy behind it.
 It takes a little time if you follow the strategies. We are going to
discuss about the strategy
Coding & Decoding : Scoring Part

3. Types of Coding Decoding

Symbol Coding

5. “In this type of questions either alphabetical code values are
assigned to symbols or symbols are assigned to alphabets.
Q.1 In a certain code "ECAM" is written as "@$*&" and
"IRA" is written as "?^*". How can "ICECREAM" be written in that
code?

6. Solutions:
E : @
C: $
A: *
M: &
I: ?
R: ^
ICECREAM : ?$@$^@*&
Ans:

7. Try this:
1. In a certain code HEAT is written as ? * $ @
and FINGER is written as  £ • & * #. How
can FATHER be written in that code?
2. In a certain code BODE is written as @ $ * ?
and EAT is written as ? • £ How can DEBATE
be written in that code?

Decoding
Let’s start with the second set of slides

9. In these questions code values are assigned to a word or a group
of words and the candidate is required to find out the original
words.
