String manipulation

I'm writing a program that requires some string manipulations. Let's say
I have a string
s='x'
Now, the ascii code for 'x' is 0x78. I want to be able to perform
operations on this number, and print the character corresponding to the
results of the operation. For example, the pseudo-code looks like:
-read in string s from external file (for simplicity, we'll keep s='x')
-determine the code for s (should be 0x78 or 120 in base 10), store it in
variable c
-add a literal to c (let's say c=c+1)
-find out which character corresponds to the new code c=0x79
-store the character in a new string s2
At the end of this, I want s2='y'
Any suggestions?
