How to change the counter of problems or questions and solutions to start from any number?

Question

I have a homework. The problems chosen by the lecturer are often not in arithmetic sequence so I have to change the problem counter (and its solution counter) manually.

\documentclass[preview,varwidth,border=12pt]{standalone}
\usepackage{exsheets}
\SetupExSheets
{
    solution/print=true, % default false
}
\begin{document}
\begin{question}
How to change  the counter of problems or questions and solutions to start from any number?
\end{question}
\begin{solution}
I don't know the counter name!
\end{solution}
\end{document}

enter image description here

\setcounter{question}{99}

You could guess it is question or it may be documented or you could look in the log where every counter allocation is logged:

\c@question=\count146

I had no idea one can find counter info in the log. +1 – long tom Sep 22 '13 at 13:00
