Create a function named sillycase that takes a string and returns that string with the first half lowercased and the last half uppercased.
# The first half of the string, rounded with round(), should be lowercased.

1) find the len of your string 2) after you have the len , determine the middle point of the string (mathematically) 3) use the round function on the midpt to determine the last character for the first half of the string 3) perform the lower() string function on the first half 4) perform the upper() string function on the second half 5) ensure the lower and uppercase parts are concatenated back together, depending on your approach
