3.1 Applying Alternating Shifts to a Sequence or Word

3.1 Applying Alternating Shifts to a Sequence or Word - Practice

Description: A sequence or word is given, and different shifts (e.g., in magnitude or direction) are applied to letters based on their positions (e.g., odd vs. even) or a repeating pattern (e.g., +1, +2, repeat). The task is to find the resulting sequence or word.

   • Example Question: For the sequence A, B, C, D, shift odd-positioned letters forward by 2 and even-positioned letters forward by 3. What is the new sequence?
     • Solution: A (+2→C), B (+3→E), C (+2→E), D (+3→G) → C, E, E, G.
   • Key Focus: Applying multiple shift rules correctly and computing the new letters.
   • Variants:
     • Shift by different magnitudes (e.g., +2 for odd, +3 for even).
     • Shift in different directions (e.g., +2 for odd, -1 for even).
     • Apply shifts based on a repeating pattern (e.g., +1, +2, +3, repeat every 3 letters).
     • Shift specific subsets (e.g., vowels shift +2, consonants shift +1).
