Creating a more useful skill

Creating a skill that says hello when you say hi is great to see working but it's not very useful. The next skill that we're going to make is going to be a lot more useful.

We're going to create a skill that suggests a model of car to buy, and can provide the user with details about the cars that it suggests.

The data that we will use will contain three sizes of car, two price groups, and an extra category for small cars (number of doors) and for large cars (manual or automatic transmission).
