Hi :)
In ascii code the alphabetic characters are 'higher' than the numbers.  So A is 
calculated as being higher than any number.  Remember that the machine doesn't 
really understand letter or numbers as we read them.  They are all just binary 
digits.  the binary digit that represents the character A is 'higher' than one 
representing a number.

Regards from
Tom :)
