Because character 'r' is the one with highest numeric point of all the characters in a string "SoloLearn".

devisfun Because 'n' numeric point is less than 'r' mate. Even ASCII table tells you that clearly : )

It's about the position in alphabet. Value of 'a' is 97, 'b' is 98, and so on.

Ipang that’s interesting, why would it not be ‘n’?

Luk but in my alphabet 'r' is before 's' or is it because 'r' is small and 'S' is a big letter?

Is there no context between the alphabet and the numeric point?
