#Create a solution that accepts
#an integer input identifying how many different shares
#of stock are purchased from the Old Town Stock Exchange, followed by an equivalent number of string inputs representing the stock selections. 

#The following dictionary, stock, lists available stock selections as the key and the cost per selection as the value.
