Display number against alphabet

riteshsingh_jsr asked:

My problem is that I have been trying to make a letter increment as such:

a-b-c-d etc then when it gets to z go: aa-ab-ac-ad... ba-bb-bc-bd and so on.

And if any user simply input the latter a, it should be give output 1 and z-26, and so on

For Example-
User input a then output should be 1
User input z then output should be 26
User input aa then output should be 27

This series will go upto zz
<

If anyone knows a simple solution to this please respond. I will keep trying but not seccess.
