<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="text"/>
<xsl:variable name="alphabets" select="'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'"/>
<xsl:param name="vAlphIndex" select="4"/>
<xsl:template match="/*">
<xsl:value-of select="substring($alphabets, $vAlphIndex, 1)"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Result will be:
d

XSLT 2.0 supports sequences, which allow you to do
<xsl:variable name="alphabet" select="'a', 'b', 'c', ...."/>
<xsl:value-of select="$alphabet[4]"/>
In XSLT 1.0, for an "array of characters" as in your example, use a string. For more complex structures, use an XML element with child elements.
