        // Goofus and Gallant does swim for the same amount of time.
        // When I put 78 degrees F, Gallant doesn't swim and Goofus swims for a minute
        // No, Gallant does not check the temperature. Same with Goofus.
        // The difference between a while and do while loop is in when the condition gets evaluated. In a do..while loop, the condition is not evaluated until the end of each loop. That means that a do..while loop will always run at least once. In a while loop, the condition is evaluated at the start
        // The while loop is sometimes a pre-test loop and the do-while loop is the post-test loop
