May be terribly niche, but I’ve just come across a situation where having a ‘counter’ that assigns sequential letters in alphabetical order starting at C through to J would have been useful.

 

If it’s of use to anyone else, maybe the Counter could count letters...or gets a cousin called the Alphabetiser?

It’s fairly straightforward to do this with a ModuloCounter and a CharacterCodeReplacer

Nice work.  Be even more straightforward if the Counter did it too, perhaps, but I did see your solution on another thread.
