A leaderboard with shared places
Print a quiz leaderboard from (name, score) tuples: highest score first, and players with the same score in alphabetical order of name. Players with equal scores share a place, and the next place skips accordingly (scores 91, 88, 88, 70 get places 1, 2, 2, 4). Each line is <place> <name> <score>.
