Hello, I don understand why my code isn't working. Please help me:
def valid_command?(command) if (command == y) || (command == yes) return "True" elsif (command == Y ) || (command == YES) return "True" end end
Thanks for your comments!
def valid_command?(command)
if (command == y) || (command == yes)
return "True"
elsif (command == Y ) || (command == YES)
return "True"
end
end

There is just a couple of things:
First, you are only checking one value for true
, so you don't need an elsif
or even an else
statement... just the if
statement.
Second, you are returning a string of "True" instead of the Boolean value of true
.
Once fixed:
def valid_command?(command)
if command == "y" || "yes" || "Y" || "YES"
return true
end
end
Hope that helps. Keep Coding! :)
