In this case, your writing problem is a tendency to use words too often. To help check for this,you are going to write a program that will search your papers for the word or words you use most often.
Input
The input consists entirely of your paper. Each line will be under 80 characters and will contain words, punctuation, and numbers. Words consist of the characters {a-z,A-Z,0-9}. Words are separated by whitespace, end-of-line, and punctuation. The punctuation that may be found includes the characters

The input ends at end-of-file.
Word comparisons are case-insensitive.
Output
Your output begins with the line:
< n > occurrences
where n is the number of times the most frequently appearing word occurs.
Following that line will be the words that occurred n times, one per line. The words must be listed in alphabetic order.
