/* Further Adventures

 *

 * 1) Try assigning a new value to playerName.

 *

 * Variables declared with const must be assigned

 * a value when they are declared. They cannot

 * have a new value assigned to them later.

 *

 * 2) Try separating the declaration of playerName

 *    from its first assignment.

 *

 *    const playerName;

 *    playerName = "Kandra";
