# In the exercises below, write your own code where indicated
# to achieve the desired result.
# One example is already completed. Your task is to complete
# any remaining prompt.
# Make sure to run the file in your command line. Look back
# at the directions from Section 1 if you need a refresher on how to do that.
#-------------------
# PART 1: Comparing variables
#-------------------
number_teachers = 4
number_students = 20
string_teachers = "4"
numberDogs = 0
# EXAMPLE: print the result of the comparison: is number_seachers greater than number_students?
puts "Is number_teachers greater than number_students?", number_teachers > number_students
# this should print: "Is numberTeachers greater than numberStudents?" false
# YOU DO: print the result of the comparison: is number_teachers less than number_students?
# this should print: true
puts "Is number_teachers less than number_students?", number_teachers < number_students
# YOU DO: print the result of the comparison: is number_teachers equal to string_teachers?
# this should print: false
puts "Is number_teachers equal to string_teachers?", number_teachers == string_teachers
# YOU DO: print the result of the comparison: is number_teachers not equal to number_students?
# this should print: true
puts "Is number_teachers not equal to number_students?", number_teachers != number_students
# YOU DO: print the result of the comparison: is number_students greater than or equal to 20?
# this should print: true
puts "Is number_students greater than or equal to 20?", number_students >= 20
# YOU DO: print the result of the comparison: is number_students greater than or equal to 21?
# this should print: false
puts "Is number_students greater than or equal to 21?", number_students >= 21
# YOU DO: print the result of the comparison: is number_students less than or equal to 20?
# this should print: true
puts "Is number_students less than or equal to 20?", number_students <= 20
# YOU DO: print the result of the comparison: is number_students less than or equal to 21?
# this should print: true
puts "Is number_students less than or equal to 21?", number_students <=21
#-------------------
# PART 2: Articulating what you are doing
#-------------------
# For the following prompts, you will be given a line of code and your task is to type out a Comment,
# in English, explaining what that line of code is doing, including what the comparison will evaluate to.
# Be as technically precise as possible, but don't just copy and paste a definition from the readings.
# Make sure YOU can explain it that way!
puts 4 < 9
#YOU DO: Explain.
## This is evaluating whether 4 is less than 9, which will come out as true.
books = 3
puts 4 < books
# YOU DO: Explain.
## This is assigning "3" to the variable "books," then evaluating whether 4 is less than the variable "books". Output will be false.
friends = 6
siblings = 2
puts friends > siblings
# YOU DO: Explain.
## This is assigning 6 to the variable "friends" and 2 to the variable "siblings", then evaluating if "friends" is greater than "siblings. Output will be true.
attendees = 9
meals = 8
puts attendees != meals
# YOU DO: Explain.
## This is assigning 9 to the variable "attendees" and 8 to the variable "meals", then evaluating whether attendees is not equal to meals. Output will be true.
#-------------------
# PART 3: Logical Operators
#-------------------
is_hungry = true
finished_homework = false
# EXAMPLE:
# Determine if the user is hungry and has completed their homework
puts is_hungry && finished_homework
# Determine if the user is hungry or has completed their homework
puts is_hungry || finished_homework
loves_to_play = true
loves_dog_park = false
loves_treats = true
age = 1
# YOU DO:
# Determine if the dog loves to play and loves treats
puts loves_to_play && loves_treats
# Determine if the dog loves to play and loves the dog park
puts loves_to_play && loves_dog_park
# Determine if the dog loves to play or loves the dog park
puts loves_to_play || loves_dog_park
# Determine if the dog loves to play and is a puppy
# Assume that a dog is a puppy if it is less than 2 years old.
puts loves_to_play && age <2
# What did your final line of code evaluate to? Why do you think that is? Explain.
# ANSWER: True. I used the logical operator "and" along with the comparison operator "less than" to evaluate if the dog loves to play and is under 2 years old. Both statements are true, so the answer is true!
