Practicing sliderInput

You have seen some common examples of shinyApp inputs in the video. You will first practice with sliderInput, which will give you either a one-sided or two sided slider.

Suppose you are building a shinyApp based on some sleep data which has been stored as sleep. You now want to allow the app user to filter the data by selecting a range of values for the average number of hours spent sleeping.

In this exercise, the shiny library has already been loaded for you.
