# Learning objectives:
# 1) Using if-else with mutually exclusive conditions (only 0 or 1 can be true)
# 2) Setting up text menu options that logically relate to the feature being
#    invoked. (Opposed to arbitrary 0 = add new player, 2 = remove player).
# Note this program is not complete (it would beyond the scope of a 1st year
# course to implement a full role playing game).

GAME OPTIONS

(c)reate new player
(p)urge player entirely from game (gone forever)

#A big advantage of using an elif over multiple IFs
