DETAILS

Your program does not need to match this sample output exactly. You change some details. You can make the loop as anyway you would like.

The inputted names and scores can have any format you want. In the above example, the thought was that each player would have a nickname that consists of exactly 3 letters in order to make it easy to deal with the input.

You will likely want to use two lists. One to keep track of all the names and one to keep track of the score totals for each name.
