Discussion
This run has already passed the end of the alphabet once. Give the letter that comes next.
D, H, P, F, ?
Answer: C
Correct answer: L
The positions double each time, wrapping when they pass 26. D is 4, H is 8, P is 16, then 32 wraps to 6, which is F. Doubling 32 gives 64, and subtracting 26 twice leaves 12, which is L. The series has already wrapped once before the question mark, which is the clue that the rule involves wrapping at all - without it the fourth term could not be F. The wrap before the question mark is the clue that the alphabet is being treated as a loop; without it the fourth term could not be F.
