----------------------------------------------------------------

For statewide elections, the state of California uses a "random
alphabetic" sort to order the candidates' names on the ballot.  This
link describes that special sort:

        http://www.ss.ca.gov/elections/elections_ra.htm

(mirrored at http://perl.plover.com/qotw/misc/r018/elections_ra.htm )

The idea is this: a random order is selected for the twenty-six
letters of the alphabet, and then the names on the ballot are sorted
according to this random order, instead of according to the usual
order.  

This is the order in which the names appear on the ballot in Assembly
District 1.  In Assembly District 2, the order is the same, except
that the first name on the list has been moved to the end of the list.
In Assembly District 3, the first name on the list is moved to the end
of the list, and so on.

You will write a program to generate ballots.  The program will be
invoked like this:

        elect.pl [-r] [permutation] [district-number] [namefile]

(Items in [square brackets] are optional.)

The 'permuation' argument will default to 'randlet.txt'.  If the file
exists, it should contain a single line of text with a random
permutation of the 26 letters of the alphabet. If this file does not
exist, the program should generate one at random.  The -r option will
force the file to be regenerated even if it exists already.

The 'district-number' is the number of the Assembly District for which
the ballot will be generated.  If omitted, the program should generate
the ballot for Assembly District 1.

The 'namefile' is a file that contains the names of the candidates.
The names come one per line with first name then last name:

        Jill Harmon
        Gus Tribble
        Walter Reston
        Norma Kretschmer
        Fiorella Squamuglia
        Marv Smith
        Bill Smith
        Ed Squid
        John Macdonald
        Angus MacDonald

If the namefile is omitted, the program should read the names from the
standard input.

The program should print out the candidates' names, one per line, in
the order specified by California state law, sorted according to the
random permutation of the alphabet, with names rearranged as
appropriate for the specified Assembly District.

For example, if the file 'permutation' contains 

        QWERTYUIOPASDFGHJKLZXCVBNM

and the 'namefile' contains the names listed above, then the output
for Assembly District 1 should be:

        Walter Reston
        Gus Tribble
        Ed Squid
        Fiorella Squamuglia
        Vern Smith
        Bill Smith
        Jill Harmon
        Norma Kretschmer
        Angus MacDonald
        John Macdonald

For Assembly District 4, it should be:

        Fiorella Squamuglia
        Vern Smith
        Bill Smith
        Jill Harmon
        Norma Kretschmer
        Angus MacDonald
        John Macdonald
        Walter Reston
        Gus Tribble
        Ed Squid
