What is a complete sentence?
A complete sentence has three characteristics:
 First, it begins with a capital letter.
 In addition, it includes an end mark—either a period [ . ], question
mark [ ? ], or exclamation point [ ! ].
 Most importantly, the complete sentence must contain at least one
main clause. A main clause contains an independent subject and
verb and expresses a complete thought.
