  var parallelogramHeight float64
  var areaOfParallelogram float64
  fmt.Println("Please enter base of parallelogram:")
  fmt.Scanf("%f", &parallelogramBase)
  fmt.Println("Please enter height of parallelogram:")
  fmt.Scanf("%f", &parallelogramHeight)
  areaOfParallelogram = parallelogramBase * parallelogramHeight
  fmt.Println("Area of parallelogram is: " , areaOfParallelogram)
