A word-and-number rearranging machine rearranges a given input line one step at a time. In each step it moves the word that comes earliest in alphabetical order (among the words not yet arranged) to the left end, just to the right of any words already arranged, and moves the largest number (among the numbers not yet arranged) to the right end, just to the left of any numbers already arranged; all other elements keep their relative order. Input: sun 27 rat 60 ox 14 map 39. In the final arrangement, which number is second from the right?
