Hi everyone! ↵
I recently tried my hand at problemsetting and created my very first problem. I would be very glad if you could take a couple of minutes to solve it and share your feedback in the comments!↵

### About the Problem↵
* **Name:** Equal Ends↵
* **Problem Link:** [View Problem](https://codeforces.me/gym/705992/problem/A)↵
* **Time Limit:** 1 second↵
* **Memory Limit:** 256 megabytes↵

### Problem Statement↵
You are given a string $s$ consisting of lowercase English letters. ↵
A string is called "good" if its first character is the same as its last character. ↵

↵
### Hint / Solution Idea↵
To solve this problem, you don't need any complex data structures. You just need to:↵
1. Read the string into a standard variable.↵
2. Access the first character of the string (index `0`).↵
3. Access the last character of the string (index `s.length() - 1` or `s.back()`).↵
4. Compare them and print the corresponding answer.↵

I would appreciate any feedback, suggestions, or criticism since this is my first experience creating problems! Good luck and happy coding!
