Assignment and variables (2)

Suppose you have $100 stored in my_money, and your friend Dan has $200 dollars. To be clear, you decide to give Dan's money a variable name too. You want to know how much money the two of you have together. Now that each variable has a descriptive name, this is easy using the arithmetic you learned earlier:

my_money + dans_money
