## Description
If `difference` is positive, the total calories the user ate is more than the `maxCalories` recommended, or a calories surplus -- otherwise, if `difference` is negative, the user has a calorie deficit.
To determine if this is a calorie surplus or deficit, create a variable named `surplusOrDeficit` to determine if the difference is positive (`difference > 0`).
If it is positive, `surplusOrDeficit` should be set equal to the string "Surplus", and "Deficit" if negative.
Use the same ternary syntax that you used to determine `maxCalories`.
