You should *never* assume that the latin letters occur in
the execution character set in ascending consecutive order.
(Though similar *is* guaranteed for the digits '0' to '9'!)

Also, I believe the exercise expects you to just count
frequencies of different characters, and not distinguish
between letters, digits, punctuation etc., and ignore
the notion of uppercase/lowercase altogether.

For character classification and case conversion you should
read up on the C library functions declared in the ctype.h
header. I suggest to save that for a later time, though.
