* 8) Step into one more time.
* 9) Why did the address of age and value change?
+* The address changed becasue we re-instantiated the variable age in the function,
+* but we didn't specify a number for it so it's just filled wiht garbage
* 10) Step over the cout and cin statements.
* 11) Verify the value entered is stored properly in age.
* 12) Step into until the flow returns to main.
* 13) Step over one more time.
* 14) Why didn't the value entered get transferred back to main?
+* This is because we are setting the age back to zero at the start of the main function,
+* thus it is resetting the age every time.
* 15) Stop debugging and fix the error.
* 16) Run to Breakpoint 1.
