#A challenge program for Python

"""
In this program would be asking the user how many times they would like to
enter a name and age and not accept floats, strings, and negative integers.
After asking the user for the name and age(, the program will store it in two
different
lists and then sort it and display both of them. After that it will change the
second name to "Gomez" and add "George" to the list containing the names. After
that
It will take the seocnd age in the list containing the ages and divide it by the
first one and round it to the third decimal place. Then the program will create
a new list and combining the the list containing the ages to the list containing
the names. Then it will take the lowest value in the list containing the ages and
multiply it by two and then sorting the list containing the names and sort the
list containing the ages and then combine the list containing the names to the
list containing the ages.
