Write a function called letter_counter that takes the name of a text file as input and returns the number of letters (i.e., any of the characters, a-to-z and A-to-Z) that the file contains. HINT: You can use the built-in function isletter. If there is a problem opening the file, the function returns -1. WARNING: if you use the ‘w’ flag with fopen, as opposed to ‘r’, you will overwrite the file.
