    //both Goofus and Gallant swim for the same amount of time at 80.5
    //Gallant doesn't swim, Goofus swims
    //Gallant checks the water first
    //Goofus dives into the water without checking
    //the while loop checks the parameters before running the code, while do-while runs it first then checks the     parameters
    //while is a pre-test loop, do-while is a post-test loop
