# Project Euler problem #8
# Find the greatest product of five consecutive digits in the 1000-digit number.

# This solution sorts each series of 5 digits by larger to lower digits (ie 54321) and and finds
# the largest number, since that would mean the series with the most larger numbers, then find the
# product of those digits. This is much more efficient than the one below.
