Increment a string with letters?

Question

I need to increment a string from.. let\'s say aaa to zzz and write every incrementation in the console (is incrementation even a word?). It would go s

Answer 1

Let's try this approach. It's a straight loop which produces the complete sequence from aaa,aab,aac,.....,xzz,yzz,zzz

function printSeq(seq){
    console.log(seq.map(String.fromCharCode).join(''));
}


var sequences = [];

(function runSequence(){
    var seq = 'aaa'.split('').map(function(s){return s.charCodeAt(0)});
    var stopCode = 'z'.charCodeAt(0);
    do{
        printSeq(seq);
        sequences.push(seq.map(String.fromCharCode).join(''));
        if (seq[2]!=stopCode) seq[2]++;
        else if (seq[1]!=stopCode) seq[1]++;
        else if (seq[0]!=stopCode) seq[0]++;
    }while (seq[0]

The results are displayed in the console and also you'll get a complete sequence stored in sequence array. Hope this is readable and helpful.
