# Phase 1: Python Foundations Exercise
# --------------------------------------

# 1. Variables & Data Types
# TODO: Create a variable for your name (string), age (int), and if you like Python (bool)
name = "Supdawg"
age = 17
likes_python = True

# 2. Conditionals (If/Else)
# TODO: Write an if statement that prints "Adult" if age is 18+, else "Minor"
if age >= 18:
    print("Status: Adult")
else:
    print("Status: Minor")

# 3. Loops (For)
# TODO: Create a list of 3 goals and loop through them to print each one
goals = ["Learn Syntax", "Build a Project", "Master FastAPI"]
print("\nMy Python Goals:")
for goal in goals:
    print(f"- {goal}")

# 4. Functions
# TODO: Complete this function to return the square of a number
def square_number(number):
    return number * number

result = square_number(5)
print(f"\nThe square of 5 is: {result}")
