Analyzing Letter Symbol Series Patterns

This solution details the process of finding specific letter-symbol patterns within a given sequence, adhering to exam-focused brevity.

Series Examination

The provided sequence is scanned from left to right: $\$ T \% K L \euro & \euro G R Y \@ A W \# Y \copyright R B \* O Y$

The pattern requires a letter that meets specific preceding and succeeding conditions.

Pattern Identification

The required pattern is a letter that meets these criteria:

  • It must be immediately preceded by a letter.
  • It must be immediately followed by a symbol.

The target structure is: $Letter1 Letter2 Symbol$. We count the occurrences of $Letter2$.

Step-by-Step Counting

We examine triplets in the series to find the pattern $Letter-Letter-Symbol$:

  • $\$ T \%$: T follows '$' (symbol). Does not match.
  • $\% K L$: K follows '%' (symbol). Does not match.
  • $K L \euro$: L (letter) follows K (letter) and precedes $\euro$ (symbol). This is the 1st match.
  • $\euro & \euro G$: G follows '$\euro$' (symbol). Does not match.
  • $G R Y$: R follows G (letter) but is followed by Y (letter). Does not match pattern.
  • $R Y \@$: Y (letter) follows R (letter) and precedes $\@$ (symbol). This is the 2nd match.
  • $\@ A W$: A follows '$\@$' (symbol). Does not match.
  • $A W \#$: W (letter) follows A (letter) and precedes $\#$ (symbol). This is the 3rd match.
  • $\# Y \copyright$: Y follows '#' (symbol). Does not match.
  • $\copyright R B$: R follows '$©$' (symbol). Does not match.
  • $R B \*$: B (letter) follows R (letter) and precedes $\*$ (symbol). This is the 4th match.
  • $\* O Y$: O follows '*' (symbol). Does not match.
  • $O Y (End)$: Y follows O (letter) but is not followed by a symbol. Does not match.

Result

There are exactly 4 letters in the series that meet the specified conditions.
