From Adrie:
My question is elementary and I am a student Please help me with the following conundrum, as it is driving me crazy.
'When the letters in the alphabet are given values from 1 to 26 for A to Z, can you make up a word that adds up to 1000000 ( one million )-used as a multiplication?'
Like 'cat' would be 3*1*20 = 60
