My Solution

var petDog = "Rex";
var petCat = "Pepper";

console.log(petDog);
console.log(petCat);
console.log("My pet dog's name is: " + petDog);
console.log("My pet cat's name is: " + petCat);

var catSound = "purr";
var dogSound = "woof";

console.log(petDog + " says " + dogSound);
console.log(petCat + " says " + catSound);

catSound = "meow"

console.log(petCat + " now says " + catSound);

Number Data Type

Foundational data type that represents integers and decimal points.

Exponential

10**2 returns 100 (10*10)
