to:
our language is impossible to understand
there are twenty six factorial possibilities
so it is okay if you want to just give up

The contest entry format is very strict and requires a little practice with fprintf. The data formats are 1980 vintage FORTRAN based. The usage of fgetl, fscanf, and dlmread may be used based upon data set. My preference is to read the Data set into a cell array and then loop over the processing as a function call with a line of output per call.
