Question 4.5
Linguistics experts believe that the intended message that a
sentence wishes to convey cannot be changed through misspelling
some of the words for as long as the _first and last letter of each
word in the sentence remain the same and the sequence in which the
words appear and the letters of each word are maintained, e.g. the
message in the following two sentences, the experts argue, is the
same:
Some students are dull while others are intelligent
Smoe stuedtns are dlul wihle oehtrs are illnteigent
Now, consider the following sentence: I FIND THE STATISTICS
COURSE TO BE VERY EASY.
Assuming the experts are correct, in how many ways can a person
write the sentence without it losing its message?
