Python next letter in alphabet

I am stuck on how to make Z turn into A on the cs circles problem Next Letter

x =input()

x=x.upper()

x=chr(ord(x) + 1)

print(x)

how do i get z to turn into A?

Using chr and ord:

def next_alpha(s):
    return chr((ord(s.upper())+1 - 65) % 26 + 65)

for s in 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz':
    print('%s --> %s' % (s, next_alpha(s)))

a --> B
b --> C
...
y --> Z
z --> A

Here is the solution to find the next alphabets of multiple alphabets.

Example:
input - abc
output - bcd

user_input = input("Enter your word: ")
lst = list(''.join(user_input.lower()))
lst1= []
str1='' for i in range(len(lst)):

x = ord(lst[i])  #ord() is used to convert char to ascii value
x=x+1
if x==123:
    x=97
    y= chr(x)       
    lst1.append(y)
    str1 =''.join(lst1)
else:
    y= chr(x)       #chr() is used to convert ascii to char value
    lst1.append(y)
    str1 =''.join(lst1)

print(str1)

Try below code to solve Next Letter Question.

charac = input()

if charac == "Z": # If Z encountered change to A
   print(chr(ord(charac)-25))

else:
   change = ord(charac) + 1
   print(chr(change))

You can subtract 25 from the ord value of 'Z' or 'z':

x = input('Enter Alphabet: ')
print(chr(ord(x)-25))

Output:

Enter Alphabet: z
a

Use the below code, this code allows users to type in multiple letters:

import string
letters = string.ascii_letters
x = input()
x = list(x.lower())
for i,v in enumerate(x):
   x[i] = letters[letters.index(v) + 1]
print(''.join(x).upper())

Example output:

azd
BAE

If you don't need them to type in multiple letters, use:

import string
letters = string.ascii_letters
x = input()
x = x.lower()
x = letters[letters.index(x) + 1]
print(x.upper())

Example output:

z
A

try this:

x = input()
x = x.upper()
order = ord(x)
if order ==90:
      order = 64
      x=chr(order + 1)
      print(x)

to increment the alphabet in lower case in clockwise

a = input("ENTER THE ALPHABET:")

inc=int(input("ENTER INCREMENT VALUE:"))

x = ord(a)

x=x+inc

if x>=123:

    x=x-122
    x=96+x
    print(chr(x))
else:

    print(chr(x))
