well, you can make an array or a dictionary and work with indexes or keys, kind of like

and then reference the alphabet array with the index you are getting from your current function:

from

to

("C:\\Users\\TEST.xlsx", "STEP", 5, alphabet[3], alphabet[15])

("C:\\Users\\TEST.xlsx", "STEP", 5, "C", "O")
