Keep the longest chains
#2
"give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime."

So grab a paper and a pen and try to be a computer. What would you do if you need to achieve desired result manually:

- in order to keep longest lines you have to check all lines, right? So - go through file line by line
- in order to keep longest lines you have to know length of every line, right? So - determine length of every line

Now just pick the longest ones (there is ambiguity in task description and therefore I don't know what exactly and in which order should be picked).

Implement it in Python and off you go.
