//let count = 0;

//count = count + 1;

// Line 1 is a variable declaration, creating the count variable with an initial value of 0
// Describe what line 3 is doing, in particular focus on what = is doing
// Line 3  returns the incremented value of count. The operator = assigns count +1 to the varibale count in the
// left.   

// Described what line three is doing.

// Example from codewar (from programming workshop)

		// add the "I"

		// add a newline after each line except the last one
