   Option C
   Solution:
   Symbols are according to last letter in words:
   g – #, k – %, l – $, m – @
   Number represents double the number of letters in words
   Alphabet represents the next letter in alphabetical series to first letter of word.
   So superstring — # for last letter g, 22 for 2*11 (11 letters in superstring), and T for next letter to s
   So superstring – #22T

   Option D
   Solution:
   There are only 2 symbols in the above coding. They have been set according to first letter of word. Words having numerical value less than equal to 13 are kept in one group and are denoted by #. and from 14-26  by @. (i.e. for first half letter (a-m) – #, and for last 13 letters (n-z) – @
   Number represents the numerical value of first letter
   Alphabet represents the reverse of last letter according to their number in alphabetical series, a = 26, b = 25, …….z = 1
   So letter — r -> i, # for l and 12 for l
   So letter – i#12
