     • And when you import time the time slows down the program
       • time.sleep(1)
         • What this does is makes the program run the amount of seconds you put in slower.
           • you do this by changing the number in the ()

6. Using #

   • When you use the # what happens is that you can comment on your coding work that you do to add in important information.

7. Lists

   • You can also randomly pick an item from a list.

8. OR: Statements

   • If you use the or statements you would be able to use the if and else statements even better.
     • if a == 'yes' or a =='y' or a =='YES' or a =='Y':
