def find_astrological_sign(month, date):
'''
(int, int) -> str
  
Given two int values representing a month and a date, return a
3-character string that gives us what star sign a person born in that
month and on that date belongs to. Use the SIGNS string (already
defined for you at the top of this file) to figure this out.

NOTE FROM BOB: A lot of string slicing to do here. It looks like the
information for each sign is exactly 16 characters long.
We can probably use that.

>>> find_astrological_sign(8, 24)
'VIR'

>>> find_astrological_sign(1, 15)
'CAP'

HOW TO WRITE THE CODE FOR THIS FUNCTION?

THE CODE NEED TO BE AS CLEAR AS POSSIBLE. THANK YOU
