# --description--

Given an integer representing the number of years a couple has been married, return their most recent anniversary milestone according to this chart:

| Years Married | Milestone    |
| ------------- | ------------ |
| 1             | `"Paper"`    |
| 5             | `"Wood"`     |
| 10            | `"Tin"`      |
| 25            | `"Silver"`   |
| 40            | `"Ruby"`     |
| 50            | `"Gold"`     |
| 60            | `"Diamond"`  |
| 70            | `"Platinum"` |

- If they haven't reached the first milestone, return `"Newlyweds"`.
