the following:

>Write a	program	that reads the contents	of the two files into two separate lists.		The user should	be able	to enter a boy's name, a girl's	name or	both, and the	application will display messages indicating whether the names were among the most popular.

	Define what is meant by "among the most popular"... Does that just mean
the entered name appears in one of the lists you provided? Does it mean the
name appears near the top of the list (which presumes the lists are in
descending popularity)? Does it mean you have to count how many times a
name shows up in the list first, to determine popularity (I'm not going to
go through them to see if there are duplicates).

	Further consultation will be at US$100/hour of my time. All code
remains copyright to me, and copyright disclaimers must be kept in the
code.
