The Essentials: Same or Different?


Are these two sequences the same?

⁞A⁞B⁞C⁞D⁞E⁞F⁞G⁞H⁞I⁞J⁞K⁞L⁞M⁞N⁞O⁞P⁞Q⁞R⁞S⁞T⁞U⁞V⁞W⁞X⁞Y⁞Z⁞

⁞A⁞B⁞C⁞D⁞E⁞F⁞G⁞H⁞I⁞J⁞K⁞L⁞W⁞N⁞O⁞P⁞Q⁞R⁞S⁞T⁞U⁞V⁞W⁞X⁞Y⁞Z⁞

There is more than one possible answer. I’ll give just two for now.

Possible Answer 1: No. The letter in the 13th position is different so the sequences are not the same.

Possible Answer 2: Yes.  The sequences are practically identical; the 13th letter is just flipped upside down.

How do you answer the question?

  1. Well, no- the 12th letter is a W, not an upside down M, so no.
