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 x 53 = 49714.
|
|
|
|
What is the total of all the name scores in the file?
