zen (or anyone else who knows what to do) please help again

name_gender_type = ['Female','female','Male','male'] if input('Female') or input('Male') in name_gender_type: print ("hi") else: print ("ooh try again") i tried to expand on it to make it detect specific answers, so i can make it detect male or female and print different responses. is this the way to do it or do i need to make a seperate list and input system? it keeps printing the word "Femalehi"

What you put in input() is printed, it's meant to tell the user what is expected as input. Here is what you apparently wanted to do: t = input() if t in ['Female', 'Male']: print ("hi") else: print ("ooh try again") Here is another example which gives a different answer whether the type is male or female, like suggested Kamal: t = input().lower() if t == 'female': print ("hi") elif t == 'male': print ("hello") else: print ("ooh try again")

Your question is confusing. If you want to take input from the user then you must use: gender = input("Enter your gender, Male or Female?) if gender == "male" or gender == "Male": print("Your message goes here.") elif gender == " female " or gender == "Female": print(" Your desired message for female goes here") else: print("Opps! Please enter again your gender: Male/Female") Try this in your IDE. I typed this from mobile app, check indentation if this doesn't run. Cheers!
