	if number1 > number2 + number3 \|\| number2 > number1 + number3 \|\| number3 > number1 + number2
	"This is not a triangle"
	else
	if number1 == number2 && number2 == number3
	"You have got yourself an equalateral triangle. You should try and be more creative."
	elsif number1 == number2 \|\| number1 == number3 \|\| number2 == number3
	'This is an isosceles triangle. So you got that there going for you.'
	elsif number1 != number2 && number2 != number3 && number3 != number1
	'Oh snap! That is a scalene'
