Each character is stored as a number. a-z are next to each other, so incrementing a gives b etc. z has value 122 in ASCII, incrementing should yield { with value 123 https://code.sololearn.com/cJgy1JYCfgv8/?ref=app

how do you print? it would be desirable to see the code. Example: public class Program { public static void main(String[] args) { char c = 'z'; c++; System.out.println(c); } }
