''' Purpose: demonstrate string acquisition (the getting of input)
'''

# get input

reply = input( 'Tell me what is on your mind: ' ) # first user input is stored in reply

print()

prompt_for_more_info = 'Hmmm. --' + reply + ' -- Why is that on your mind: '
# Now prompt for more info uses the user's reply and glues the strings together!

# We pass in the variable prompt_for_more_info (stores a string) into the input function for the prompt
reply = input( prompt_for_more_info )   # reply is reassigned the second user input

print()

response = 'Oh? I wish we had more time to chat. So long.' # The variable response stores a string!

print( response )
