Subject: [PATCH] PCC01 ryanh153 (#571)

* PCC01 ryanh153

* Delete dictionary.txt

This file is not part of your solution and rather big. You don't have to commit files of the original challenge :)

* Delete wordvalue-template.py

Again, you don't have to add template files to your solution, just your solution :)

* Delete data.py

This file is part of the challenge and not your code so I deleted it from the PR

* Delete test_wordvalue.py

Tests are part of the challenge and not your contribution so I deleted them from the pR :)
