Each number in our DECODER grid represents a different
letter - there is a number for all 26 letters of the alphabet.
Enter the given letters into all squares with matching numbers.
The challenge now is to work out which letters are represented
by the other numbers. As you get the letters, enter them into
the main grid, and the reference grid. To keep track of the
letters you have found, cross them off the alphabet provided.
