Rules for giving names
- letters
- numbers (Can't be the first letter)
- underscore _ 

Valid
- _mystr
- my3
- Hello_there

Invalid name
- 3my="hi" -- cannot start with number
-firstname ="hi"
= first-name

print (2) - integer
print (2.5) - floating point
print ("Hello") -  string
print (mystr) - variable
print (mystr, "hi", 2,1,0) - - commas

mystr = "Hi"
mystr - name
"Hi" - value can change
print (int(1.5)) - 1
print (int ("2") - 2
print (float (1)) - 1.0 anything to a float
