For example, the key "GHI": if you wanted a G, you'd need press the key only once. If you wanted an H, you'd press the key twice. And, if you wanted an I, you'd press the key three times.
3 of 10: Bearing this in mind, now let's try to work out what the code itself is.
4 of 10: It's going to have to be seven letters in length.
