/*
1. Yes they swim for the same amount of time.
2. Goofus swims Gallant does not.
3. Gallant checks the water temperature first, then dives in.
4. Goofus dives in first, then checks the water.
5. A while loops initiates after an expression is checked and returns a value of TRUE. A do-while loop is the opposite and will execute its function once before and then check the condition for the next session.
6. Do-while is a post test loop, while loop is a pre-test loop.
