I'm not sure what you mean...if you mean plotting points on a graph with numbers along one axis and letters on the other that's a dead end. If you simply mean putting the letters in numerical order, then it may help you to begin to recognize the source of the numbers.

When the question was a number, my answer was a word with the first consonants corresponding to the digits of the question, and answers for words were the sum of the letter values. That, my friends, is a SPOILER!
