For more info, when I've used Cheggs solution I get no output, no error message, just nothing. Also I need to make a file to upload its not given. Thank you!

Write a Python function to read players names and scores from a file into two parallel lists, a list of names (namesList) and a list of scores (scoresList), which will be used during the game. While reading the file, your function keeps track of the best score read so far, along with the name of the player who got that score.

After reading all of the names and scores, your function displays the highest score and that players name. For instance, if Karin had the best score and her score was 7212, your function would display:

Karin has the best score: 7212

Here is an example file:

Michael

4999

Chris

5970

Madeleine

4110

Karin

7212

Strip off the newline character before adding a name to the list of names. Assume that the filename is given when the function is called, so do not ask the user for a filename. Also, assume that the two lists are initially empty and that all scores are different: there are no ties.

Hints:

1- In a loop, read lines from the file: one read for the name and another for the score

2- Inside the loop, keep track of the maxScore and assign the maxName that has the maxScore. Append both the namesList and scoresList.

Here is the header line for the function:

def readFile(fileName, namesList, scoresList):

""" Opens and reads fileName into two parallel lists: nameList and scoreList. Also, determines and displays: the highest score, and that player's name Assumes file is in correct format: name, score, name, with each name and each score on a separate line in the file Assumes that nameList and scoreList are initially empty Assumes that all scores are different: there are no ties """
