Inserting multiple inputs

You can insert more than just one input. Suppose you also want app users to choose the average number of hours spent sleeping, as well as a specific year.

To this end, in the ui, you can insert another sliderInput() where the values are the years of interest.

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