# --description--

Usando `names`, un array definito in background contenente oltre cinquemila nomi, inizia ordinandolo in ordine alfabetico. Quindi calcolando il valore alfabetico per ogni nome, moltiplica questo valore per la sua posizione alfabetica nella lista per ottenere un punteggio per il nome.

Ad esempio, quando la lista è ordinata in ordine alfabetico, COLIN, che vale 3 + 15 + 12 + 9 + 14 = 53, è il 938-mo nome dell'elenco. Pertanto, COLIN otterrebbe un punteggio di 938 × 53 = 49714.

Qual è il totale di tutti i punteggi dei nomi nell'array?

# --hints--

`namesScores(test1)` dovrebbe restituire un numero.

```js
assert(typeof namesScores(test1) === 'number');
```

`namesScores(test1)` dovrebbe restituire 791.

```js
assert.strictEqual(namesScores(test1), 791);
```

`namesScores(test2)` dovrebbe restituire 1468.

```js
assert.strictEqual(namesScores(test2), 1468);
```

`namesScores(names)` dovrebbe restituire 871198282.

```js
assert.strictEqual(namesScores(names), 871198282);
```
