It should then greet the user and tell them their city is a nice place.
A sample session might look like the following
What is your name? Brenda
Where are you from? Worcester
Hello Brenda!
I hear Worcester is a very nice place!

Problem #2.
Write a Python program (named converter.py) which asks for a length in feet,
and then prints out the equivalent length in inches.

(named word.py) which inputs a string and prints the word, its length,
the first letter and the last letter.

The length is 7
The first letter is l
The last letter is d
Note: User input is underlined.
What To Turn In.
A printed listing of each lab program. To save paper, you may copy and paste all three programs
into one document before printing. Place a line of dashes between the different programs.
Be sure that your name is in the program prologue's comment section of EACH program.
Reminder.
Be sure to save a copy of each program, either by emailing it to yourself or saving it on your Google drive.
You are responsible for keeping a copy of every program until the graded assignment is handed back.
