    ParseInput: get the list of names provided into a Python list.
    Sort input list into alpha order
    Iterate through the list totaling up the weighted score for each name.
        NameScore - given a name, compute its score (A=1, B=2, C=3...)
            NameScore is the sum of the value of the letters in the name
