We may jump to the combination PEGQGV at once since the preceding letters do not make ORDENO QUE. We try this without result and proceed to EGQGVJ, GQGVJJ, QGVJJE, GVJJEE, VJJEEE, JJEEEH, JEEEHO, EEEHOB, EEHOBG, EHOBGV, HOBGVG, OBGVGJ, BGVGJC, GVGJCA, VGJCAG, all without result. This work requires less time than might be imagined and is the kind of work which can be divided among a number of operators. Now let us come to the next combination GJCAGX. We add the next three letters, AES, against QUE.🏁
