# process_names.rb - A simple Ruby program to
# illustrate the use of arrays
# Input: A list of lines of text, where each line
# is a person's name
# Output: The input names, after all letters are 
# converted to uppercase, in alphabetical order

index = 0

# Loop to read the names and process them
while(name = gets)

# Convert the name's letters to uppercase and put it
# in the names array
 names[index] = name.chomp.upcase
 index += 1
end

# Sort the array in place and display it
names.sort!
