Hi,

It would have been nice if you'd told us your own thoughts on this taks 
or at least your level of Ruby knowledge. Now all we have is a rather 
vague description of your homework.

I don't know how to measure "difficult" figures. If we assume that the 
children have all the figures they could get, then "difficult" probably 
just means rare.

So there are two task:
- find the child with the most figures
- find the rarest figure

For the implementation, I'd start by finding a good way to store the 
data: You have 17 data sets consisting of a name and a set of figure 
numbers (which may range from 1 to 70).

Then you have to select the most digilent child and the rarest figure. 
You may want to look into the Enumerable#may_by method:
