In this video, we will be considering how to solve the problem of implementing a function that converts a spreadsheet column ID (i.e. "A", "B", "C", ..., "Z", "AA", etc.) to the corresponding integer.

We will cover how to solve this problem algorithmically, and then code up a solution to this question in Python.

This video is part of a series on string processing and, specifically, on how these problems tend to show up in the context of a technical interview:
