A little program written as a demonstrator to show someone how to solve
a real problem.  I make no claims of elegance or efficiency.  The data
is fake (Phil may want to improve this!).

-- In a public award scheme, each entrant can receive awards
-- based on their scores in a number of events.  To achieve an
-- award, the competitor must have competed in three events
-- and achieved a total score greater than the fixed threshold
-- for the award.

-- No score can be counted towards more than one award, 
-- but there is no limit on the total number of awards that can be won.

-- The thresholds for the various awards are:
--	Gold	70 points
--	Silver	60 points
--	Bronze	50 points
