Again, I am playing with the numbers behind the letters.

L is the 12th letter of the alphabet and I reversed 12 and got 21. The 21st letter of the alphabet is U

J is the 10th letter of the alphabet and I reversed 10 and got 01. The 1st letter of the alphabet is A.

T is the 20th letter of the alphabet and I reversed 20 and got 02. The 2nd letter of the alphabet is B.

You may say that we can just add or minus 9 to get the alphabet BUT the problem is: If you add or minus 9 then when would you know that you need to add or minus. So the method is unstable and cannot be a way.

Revert the digits of the alphabets' codes that are at left side.

For J,it is 10 , by reverting it becomes 01 that is the code of A.

Use this technique for T.

T=20

Revert(20)=02

02=B

(Codes means when you write the alphabets along with the natural numbers in a sequential ascending order,the numbers equivalent to alphabets are codes)
