valavanp has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
I have 5 words like this
SATOR,
AREPO,
TELET,
OPERA,
ROTAS
I need the logic and the code of the above acrosstick.
Is it possible to do that in a single array. Thanks monks for your valuable suggestion. Please regret if any thing wrong.

What is it that you are trying to achieve and what code have you tried so far?
You should start to solve this problem by describing the process you would use to find a solution on paper then write the code to replicate that. If you have trouble at that point come back to us with some code and we will help some more.

It's not clear to me what you mean by "logic" or "code". What do you want?
You might start by replacing the letters with ABCDEFGHI (considering the R in AREPO/OPERA to be a different letter than the R in SATOR/ROTAS) to see the pattern better:
SATOR/ AREPO/
ROTAS OPERA TELET
SATOR ABCDE B D C
AREPO B D BFGHD G
TELET = C C + G G + CGIGC
OPERA D B DHGFB G
ROTAS EDCBA D B C
