In this method, we have a Lookup table; it consists of all possible substitutions for a given set of inputs. This Lookup table can be visualized like this:
|
Source Text (y) |
Substituted Text (y) |
|
Steve Jobs |
AAPL-1 |
|
Cat |
123456789 |
|
Tennis |
Cricket |
This table illustrates how a Lookup table can be constructed for substituting source text with a different text. This method scales well when there is a predefined quantity of substitutions available.
Another example of this Lookup table-based substitution is when we follow a naming standard for country codes, for example, ISO-8661:
|
Source Text (x) |
Substituted Text (y) |
|
Egypt |
EG |
|
India |
IN |
|
Saint Vincent and Grenadines |
VN |
|
United Kingdom |
