### Assignment: Requirements
1. Replace lines 36 and 37 and write a loop to print out each day and the emoticon that is associated by analyzing the mood of that day.

Your result will look like:
```
03/01 :-(
03/13 :-|
...
```
Your result will look like:
```
03/01 :-(
03/13 :-|
...
```

**think**: Why does 03/13 come out as _neutral_ when it should be _happy_? How could we fix this?
#### Test & Verify
Run the resulting code & ensure that each day is printed with the correct emoticon. **think** which does should be happy, which sad and which

**think**: Why does 03/13 come out as _neutral_ when it should be _happy_? How could we fix this?

2. To make the results a little more accurate, let's write and utilize a method called `strip_punctuation` to strip out the punctuation that affects the results. Namely, remove exclamation marks (!), periods (.), commas (,), and hashtags (#).

Your method should take a string as an argument and return the string without the above mentioned punctuation.
Your method should take a string as an argument and return the string without the above mentioned punctuation.

After writing this method, our new result should be:
```
03/01 :-(
03/13 :-)
...
```

#### Test & Verify
Run the resulting code & check to see if days where there is punctuation change. You can also put test `puts` messages in your code to verify that your method is removing punctuation.


After writing this method, our new result should be:
```
03/01 :-(
03/13 :-)
...
```
**think**: Where should we call `strip_punctuation`? Does it matter? Why?

3. Write a method called `happy_days` to determine how many logged entries it takes until there have been three :-) happy days.
## Optional Enhancements

Your output could be something like:
```
It takes 5 entries for 3 happy days to occur
```

**think**: What are you going to do if there aren't at least 3 happy days? Where do you need to handle that case?
1. Write a method called `happy_days` to determine how many logged entries it takes until there have been three :-) happy days.

4. Write a method called `overall_mood` to determine the most common mood across all logged entries.
Your output could be something like:
```
It takes 5 entries for 3 happy days to occur
```

Your output could be something like:
```
The most common mood is :-)
```

**think**: Should you use an array or a hash to solve this problem? Why?
2. Write a method called `overall_mood` to determine the most common mood across all logged entries.

**think**: What if we eventually want to add feelings to our analysis? Can we write this code in a way that will prevent us from having to re-write it later?
Your output could be something like:
```
The most common mood is :-)
