I researched a lot of dogs and their attributes as seen above then i will ask them a series of 47 questions then compare their answers to my researched answers. Every time they get a answer 'right' or the answers match the dog will be given 1 point the one with the highest points will be the most compatible. I am kinda stuck at comparing the two arrays - the answers obtained from the user and the researched answers
Any input will be awesome
Please and Thank you :)
