Problem
Write `is_strong_password(password)` that returns `True` only if the password is a strong one, and `False` otherwise. A password is strong when ALL of these hold: 1. It is exactly 8 characters long. 2. It contains at least one uppercase letter (A-Z). 3. It contains at least one lowercase letter (a-z). 4. It contains at least one digit (0-9). 5. It contains at least one special character from the set `!@#$%^&*`. Return a `bool`. For example, `"Abcd1!@x"` returns `True`, while `"abcdefgh"`, `"Abcd1234"`, and `"Ab1!"` all return `False`.
Summary
Does this password pass the strength gate?
