Use the ifelse function to write one line of code that assigns to the object new$\_$names the state abbreviation when the state name is longer than $8$ characters and assigns the state name when the name is not longer than $8$ characters.

For example, where the original vector has Massachusetts $(13$ characters$),$ the new vector should have MA$.$ But where the original vector has New York $(8$ characters$),$ the new vector should have New York as well.
