Name scores
|
||
Problem 22
|
||
|
||
Using names.txt (right click and 'Save Link/Target As...'), a 46K text file containing over five-thousand first names, begin by sorting it
|
||
into alphabetical order. Then working out the alphabetical value for each name, multiply this value by its alphabetical position in the list
|
||
to obtain a name score.
|
||
|
||
For example, when the list is sorted into alphabetical order, COLIN, which is worth 3 + 15 + 12 + 9 + 14 = 53, is the 938th name in the list.
|
||
So, COLIN would obtain a score of 938 × 53 = 49714.
|
||
|
||
What is the total of all the name scores in the file?
