+/*
+
+Objective:
+In this activity, you will reinforce the skill of creating and using variables
+while practicing best practices in variable naming conventions through a hands-on,
+interactive coding challenge.
+
+The code snippet below may include:
+  - Ambiguous or incorrect variable names.
+  - Missing variables that need to be created.
+  - Scenarios that require the use of clear and descriptive variable names.
+
+You will:
+  - Identify Issues: Review the provided code and identify any variable names that:
+  - Are unclear or too vague (e.g., a, b, c).
+  - Do not follow best practices (e.g., camelCase, descriptive naming).
+  - Refactor the Code: Rename the variables and rewrite the program using descriptive names that clearly convey the variable's purpose.
+  - Enhance the Program: Add at least two additional variables to improve the program’s functionality or clarity.
+
+Things to reflect on:
+  - Why is it important to use meaningful variable names?
+  - What are the common pitfalls to avoid when naming variables?
+  - How do clear variable names benefit team collaboration?
