=====<font color="navy">Using the word "love"</font>=====
* We will use the play <b> Romeo and Juliet </b>
1.
2. Import RomeoJuliet
3. The variable RomeoJuliet is the play - don't
4. Now create a variable that represents the string "love", for example:
Line 77 ⟶ 86:
>>> lv_counter = 0;
</pre>
6. Use a for loop (or while loop, if you like) to read through the lines of the file. While you are reading each line, count the number of lines that contains the word "love"
7. Does Shakespeare use a lot of love in his plays? How about other synonyms of "love"?
Line 83 ⟶ 92:

====Dictionaries====
* Dictionaries are another data structure commonly used in programming. Dictionaries
* Entries in the dictionary are stored <b>
* <b>keys</b> for each entry in the dictionary must be unique, <b> values </b> do not have to be unique.
