Assignment:

Remember the assignment you did last week where you created a food quiz with
nested if...else if conditionals?? IF the answer to the question was "a" y
ou should do one thing, ELSE IF the answer was "b" you should do another thing...etc.
Revise that lab so that instead of using all those IF...ELSE IF's, you use a
Switch statement instead. Much easier!!

var inputName="";
function writeAlert(name) {
	inputName = name;
	if (inputName == "Thomas Jefferson") {

		President!");

		alert("Right you are!");
	}
	if (inputName == "Emeril Lagasse") {
		alert("Not yet!");
	}
	if (inputName == "Nigella Lawson") {

		sign up for French!");
	} else if (frenchWord == "burnt cream") {
