a$.$ Request the username $($use an input statement on line $12).$ Let's say their name is "Suzy"

b$.$ Test if newstr is a palindrome. We are replacing line $30.$

i$.$ If true, print: "Suzy, teststr is a palindrome!"

ii$.$ else, print: "Suzy, teststr is NOT a palindrome!"

do this instead

Hello, what is your nane? Suzy

Enter string to test for palindrome or 'exit': racecar

Suzy racecar is a palindrome!

Enter string to test for palindrome or 'exit': DePaul

suzy depaul is NOT a palindrome!
