Thanks for the input, guys. It's actually not homework, I'll explain further. And in fact, I may be way out of my league here in trying to do this.
I run a fantasy-wrestling website, of about 400-500 wrestlers, and until now I've been ranking them in an excel file, then manually grabbing the top 20 ranked wrestlers and placing them in a text file, to include on the front page. You can see it at http://www.ewexperts.com on the right side.
The great idea I had was to implement a script-based system, where my staff members can monitor matches and then submit updated stats, for me to review and either confirm or reject (to prevent cheating).
From this script, I would like the wrestler ranked (not by file-size as I think some people interpreted) but by largest-to-smallest based on the number that exists in each .total file.
I have the first script created already (the one where the stats are submitted into different files, example: (Jason Blade.wins, Jason Blade.losses, Jason Blade.total)
But, I think I might be out of my realm of capability on this one, because nothing I try seems to be working and so I'll probably look to hiring out for this one.
