not forget to comment your code using in-line or multi-line comments.
1. Assign the paragraph to a string variable called my_text.
2. Create a birthdate string variable and store Hemingway's birthdate in it using the string slicing and indexing operations.
3. Calculate the number of characters in the last sentence of the paragraph, including spaces and punctuation marks, and store this value in a variable called length.
4. Count how many complete sentences are in the paragraph and store it in the variable sentences (Hint: sentences end with a period).
5. Calculate the number of words in the last sentence and store this in the variable word_count. A word is defined as any sequence of characters separated by a space or punctuation.
