 *  The professor repeated multiple times variations of "You MUST set up your IF/ELSEIF structures this way – there
 *  cannot be the possibility where more than one condition might be true." Do you agree? I'm sure there must be
 *  situations that fit the following. But the set I specified proves that it's also possible for both the if and the
 *  else-if to be true, yet the logic shows it's useful to check for both. I don't understand why we MUST not have
 *  multiple cases that might potentially be true. It still compiles just fine, so it's not a syntax issue.
