HackerNews Solution

This repo contains a solution for the following problem:

Dowload th top the stories from the Hacker News API: https://github.com/HackerNews/API

For each of the top 30 stories, we want to have an output containing:

• The story title

• The top 10 commenters of that story.

For each commenter:

• The number of comments they made on the story.

• The total number of comments they made among all the top 30 stories.

For instance, if we consider just the 3 top stories (instead of 30) and top 2 commenters (instead of 10):

Story A	Story B	Story C
user-a (1 comment)	user-a (4 comments)	user-a (4 comments)
user-b (2 comment)	user-b (3 comments)	user-b (5 comments)
user-c (3 comment)	user-c (2 comments)	user-c (3 comments)

We want the output to look as follows:

Story	1st Top Commenter	2nd Top Commenter
Story A	user-c (3 for story - 8 total)	user-b (2 for story - 10 total)
