Code With Me - Episode 001 - Beautiful Strings

In this, the premier of my new 'Code With Me' series, I take on the Code Eval challenge 'Beautiful Strings'.

We solve the challenge by creating a std::array that holds the number of each character in our string. Next, we count all the characters from a line of the input file. We then sort the std::array using std::sort from low to high. Finally, we calculate our maximum 'Beauty Score' by multiplying an incrementing point value to each character count in our sorted array and summing the results.
