In the game of [golf ](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golf ), each hole has a `par` , meaning, the average number of `strokes` a golfer is expected to make in order to sink the ball in the hole to complete the play. Depending on how far above or below `par` your `strokes` are, there is a different nickname.

Your function will be passed `par` and `strokes` arguments. Return the correct string according to this table which lists the strokes in order of priority; top (highest) to bottom (lowest):
< table class = 'table table-striped' > < thead > < tr > < th > Strokes< / th > < th > Return< / th > < / tr > < / thead > < tbody > < tr > < td > 1< / td > < td > "Hole-in-one!"< / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > < = par - 2< / td > < td > "Eagle"< / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > par - 1< / td > < td > "Birdie"< / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > par< / td > < td > "Par"< / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > par + 1< / td > < td > "Bogey"< / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > par + 2< / td > < td > "Double Bogey"< / td > < / tr > < tr > < td > >= par + 3< / td > < td > "Go Home!"< / td > < / tr > < / tbody > < / table >
`par` and `strokes` will always be numeric and positive. We have added an array of all the names for your convenience.
