the easiest way is simply: atom char char = 't' -- ascii value 116 char += 1 -- ascii value 117, the letter 'u' Characters are always stored as their ascii value. For example, the string "test" is actually a sequence: {116,101,115,116} So, in your example, y does equal the ascii value of 'C', but so does x.
