/*Write a java program that prompts the user to enter the number of 
students and then each student’s name and score,
  * and finally displays the student with highest score and the student 
with the second- highest score.
  * You are NOT allowed to use ‘Arrays’ for this problem (as we have not 
covered arrays yet).
  *
  * HINT: You do not need to remember all the inputs. You only need to 
maintain variables for max and second max
  *  scores and corresponding names. Whenever you read a new input, you 
need to compare it to the so far established
  *  max & second max scores and change things accordingly. */
