I'd say the requirement is

This only makes sense if your answer is going to be multiple characters.

This line concatenates the strings together.

You wrote this:

ord(c1) - ord('a') + 1
ord(c2) - ord('a') + 1
First of all, this looks like homework. People will help you with
concepts here, but most frown on just providing answers. With that in
mind look at this:
>>> ord('A')
65
>>> ord('a')
97

Can you give some expected out
I have to define a function add(c1, c2), where c1 and c2 are capital letters;
the return value should be the sum (obtained by converting the letters to
numbers, adding mod 26, then converting back to a capital letter).
All I have so far is:
def add(c1, c2):
ord(c1) - ord('a') + 1
ord(c
