Challenge 173 - Replace With Alphabet Position

Given a string, replace every letter with its position in the alphabet.

If anything in the text isn't a letter, ignore it and don't include it in the output.

"a" = 1, "b" = 2, etc.

Example

alphabet_position("The sunset sets at twelve o' clock.")
-> "20 8 5 19 21 14 19 5 20 19 5 20 19 1 20 20 23 5 12 22 5 15 3 12 15 3 11"

Notes

• The output should be a string of space separated numbers.
