Consider that: 1. A is taller than B. 2. C is taller than A. 3. D is taller than C. 4. E is the tallest of all. If they are made to sit in the above order of their height, who will occupy the mid position?

Let's build this intuitively, like stacking blocks, reading the statements one by one.\n\n1. **Start with the first link:** 'A is taller than B'.\n *Stack:* A > B\n\n2. **Connect C:** 'C is taller than A'. Since C is above A, and we know A is above B, the chain grows naturally.\n *Stack:* C > A > B\n\n3. **Connect D:** 'D is taller than C'. Just place D on top of C.\n *Stack:* D > C > A > B\n\n4. **Place the Anchor:** 'E is the tallest of all'. E goes to the very top.\n *Final Stack:* E > D > C > A > B\n\n**Finding the answer:**\nWe have 5 people. The 'mid position' is the 3rd one from either top or bottom.\nTop down: 1(E), 2(D), **3(C)**.\n\nOnly minimum logic of connecting links was needed. No complex diagrams.
