Output:

blist is [a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, m, n, o, p, q, r, s, t, u, v, w, x, y, z]

alist is [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26]

clist is [j, o, h, n, s, m, i, t, h]

dlist is [10, 15, 8, 14, 19, 13, 9, 20, 8]

The summation of the chars 116
