  2.  * Project Euler, Problem #22 (less functions)
  3.  *
  4.  * Using names.txt (http://p...content-available-to-author-only...r.net/project/names.txt), a 46K text file
  5.  * containing over five-thousand first names, begin by sorting it into alphabetical
  6.  * order. Then working out the alphabetical value for each name, multiply this value
  7.  * by its alphabetical position in the list to obtain a name score.
  8.  *
  9.  * For example, when the list is sorted into alphabetical order, COLIN, which is
  10.  * worth 3 + 15 + 12 + 9 + 14 = 53, is the 938th name in the list. So, COLIN would
  11.  * obtain a score of 938 ? 53 = 49714.
  12.  *
  13.  * What is the total of all the name scores in the file?
  14.  *
  15.  * Solution by: migf1
  16.  *	File contents are split and loaded into an ascending-ordered singly linked list
  17.  *	in one pass. A second pass traverses the list to calculate the total score.
