Lab 2.4 uses variables even though they aren't introduced yet #3

I think this is where we introduce variables, I could be wrong.

Hi Julian,

Yes variables are introduced in Unit 3. I do not think Lab 2.4 can be solved without creating 3 variables so it should be moved to after the introduction of variables in 3.1.

Lesson 2.4 says to introduce variables; I assume because they're introduced here, we can continue with the lesson. It's impossible to teach booleans without variables because it's impossible to compare anything. Should we move the entire lesson to after 3.1?

Lesson 2.4/2.5/and 2.6 (the project) all rely on using variables which aren't introduced.
