Julia as a calculator

Writing your code into a script instead of the console means you will have it saved for later. This allows you to rerun the code, modify it and run it with different inputs, or check for any mistakes in the code you used earlier.

Here you are writing a script to keep track of your weekly hours worked. You have been adding to it every day to get a total.
