// ---------------------------------------------------------
// EXERCISE: Assign slice literals
//
//   1. Assign the following data using slice literals to the slices that
//      you've declared in the first exercise.
//
//    1. The names of your three best friends (to the names slice)
//
//    2. The distances to five different locations (to the distances slice)
//
//    3. Five bytes of data (to the data slice)
//
//    4. Two currency exchange ratios (to the ratios slice)
//
//    5. Up/Down status of four different web servers (to the alives slice)
//
//  2. Print their type, length and whether they're equal to nil value or not
//
//  3. Compare the length of the distances and the data slices; print a message
//     if they are equal (use an if statement).
//
//
// EXPECTED OUTPUT
//  names    : []string 3 false
//  distances: []int 5 false
//  data     : []uint8 5 false
//  ratios   : []float64 2 false
//  alives   : []bool 4 false
//  The length of the distances and the data slices are the same.
