@user3106858 using ord you might need to use strtolower as well as subtract 96 from the result.

@user3106858 the result of ord is in ascii so you need to subtract 96 to make it ordered as in a=1, b=2, etc.

A typical fragment of code when doing these kinds of manipulations is something like: ord($letter) - ord('a').
