//	This program demonstrates your textbook author's "string"
//	variable type.
//
//	1. Compile this like so:
//
//		g++ -Wall -o strings strings.cpp -lg++ -lastra
//
//		The "-lastra" combined with the "#include <astra.h>
//		lets you use Astrachan's variable types.
//
//	2. What's the \" about?
//
//	3. What if you type a return or two between your first
//		and second words?  What if you have punctuation
//		between them?

	cout << thisWord << " is " << thisWord.length() << " characters long." << endl;
