Facebook HackerCup - Beautiful Strings
"""
Beautiful Strings
When John was a little kid he didn't have much to do. There was no internet, no Facebook,
and no programs to hack on. So he did the only thing he could... he evaluated the beauty
of strings in a quest to discover the most beautiful string in the world.
Given a string s, little Johnny defined the beauty of the string as the sum of the beauty
of the letters in it.
