% Description:
% Create a program that should read in the data from the text file in
% CANVAS description called homework_9.txt, and sort the participants
% into alphabetical order based upon last name.
%
% Variables:
% a = opening text file
% alph = sorting names
% pop_out = pop out menu
% weight_min = weight min
% weight_max = weight max
% weight_avg = weight average
% p = positive amount of RH Factors
% n = negitive amount of RH Factors
% Create a switch case
a = fopen('Homework_9.txt'); % opens text file
[first,last,weight,b_t,rh_f] = textread('Homework_9.txt','%s%s%s%s%s');
% Sorts names by last name alphabetically
% disp('Participants Sorted by Last Names');
b(:,1) = first;
b(:,2) = last;
b(:,3) = weight;
b(:,4) = b_t;
b(:,5) = rh_f;
Participants = sortrows(b,2)

weight_min = min(weight)
weight_max = max(weight)
