Write an if-else statement to check if c1_name is equal to “Mr. Farley”.
- If so, print a string of “Hello Mr. Farley” using the c1_name variable.
- If not, print a string of “Hello stranger”.
Write an if-else statement to check if c2_age is greater than c1_age.
- If so, print a string of “Mr. Farley is older than Mr. Snuggles”.
- Else if c1_age is greater than c2_age, print a string of “Mr. Snuggles is older than Mr. Farley”.

- If so, print a string of “Mr. Farley comes from the home of the Raiders!”.
- Else if c2_location is equal to a string of “San Francisco, CA”, print a string of “Mr. Farley comes from the home of the 49ers!”.
- Else, both conditions must not apply, therefore, print a string of “Mr. Farley doesn’t hail from a sports town.”
Write an if-else statement to check if c1_rent is greater than c2_rent.
- If so, print a string of “Mr. Farley pays more rent than Mr. Snuggles”.
- Else if c1_rent is less than c2_rent, print a string of “Mr. Farley pays less rent than Mr. Snuggles”.
