Never use built-in names as input

l = []


def input_x(s):
    for i in s:
        i = (ord(i)-90)%26+97
        l.append(chr(i))
    s = ''.join(l)
    return s

def input_x(s):
    result = ""
    for i in s:
        ci = (ord(i)-90)%26+ 97
        result += chr(ci)
    print(result)

You can use strings to do this. My variable finaloutput is a string that I will use to store all the updated characters.

def foo(s):
    finaloutput = ''
    for i in s:
        finaloutput += chr((ord(i)-90)%26+97)
    return finaloutput

This code uses string concatenation to add together a series of characters. Since strings are iterables, you can use the for loop shown above instead of the complex one that you used.
