The constructor is a function that is executed when a contract is created. It cannot be called explicitly and is invoked only once during its lifetime. Every contract can have exactly one constructor and if no constructor is declared, the contract will use the default constructor.

1. Create a constructor in solidity using the constructor keyword:
