❓ 🦴 Hytrl Skull Collection Problem#

Imagine you are cataloging skull specimens in the Hytrl Skull Collection. Each skull has a unique catalog number, type (e.g., carnivore or herbivore), and weight in kilograms.

Your Task:#

  1. Define the Variables:

    • Create a variable catalog_number and assign it a string value "HSC-101".

    • Create a variable skull_type and assign it the string "Carnivore".

    • Create a variable weight_kg and assign it a float value 4.25.

  2. Format and Print Information:

    • Use an f-string to combine these variables into a descriptive sentence.

    • The output should be:
      "The skull with catalog number HSC-101 is a Carnivore and weighs 4.25 kg."

  3. Data Type Check:

    • Use the type() function to verify and print the data type of each variable (catalog_number, skull_type, and weight_kg).

    • For each variable, print a sentence like:
      "The data type of catalog_number is <class 'str'>."

  4. Comments:

    • For each of the steps add a comment explaining what the code is doing. We are using autograders so the comments have to match an expected schema.

    The comments for each step should be:

    1. # Define the Variables

    2. # Format and Print Information

    3. # Data Type Check

def skull_catalog():
    # Step 1
    ...

    # Step 2
    ...

    # Step 3
    ...


# This will call the function and display the output
# Do not change the lines below
skull_catalog()

grader.check("activity-Hytrl Skull Collection")
