SYCS-135 INTRODUCTION TO PROGRAMMING
ASSIGNMENT 2

Due Date for Tues./Thurs: Sept. 14, 2000 (Garuba)
Due Date for Mon./Wed./Fri.: Sept. 15, 2000 (Keeling)

PROBLEM: Write a program that simulates the child's game "My Grandmother's Trunk." In this game, the players sit in a circle, and the first player names something that goes in the trunk: "In my grandmother's trunk, I packed a pencil." The next player restates the sentence and adds something new to the trunk: "In my Grandmother's trunk, I packed a pencil and a red ball." Each player in turn adds something to the trunk, attempting to keep track of all the items that are already there.

Your program should simulate just five turns in the game. Starting with the NULL string, simulate each player's turn by concatenating a new word or phrase to the existing string, and print the results on a new line. Each student should make up his or her own list of items to be placed in the trunk. The output should be formatted as follows:
