// This script does a number of things:
// - Normalises the descriptions and solutions to be "Unknown cause." and "Unknown solution." rather than "N/A"
// - If one of the descriptions or solutions is "Unknown cause." or "Unknown solution.", the other will be copied to it
// - Ensures all descriptions and solutions end with a full stop if they do not already and if the last character is a letter
// - Writes the changes back to the file in place
