Conditional ("n" or"N") not working in program

Question

Hi,

The below code is a dictionary search code, what's not running is that, when the condition checks "j = input("did you mean %s?"% gm(w, data.keys())[0])", and I press n or N, the program just exits out, it doesn't prints the message in that condition. Any help would be appreciated.

import json

from difflib import get_close_matches as gm

data= json.load(open("data.json"))

def search():
w = input("enter the word you want the meaning for:")

w = w.lower()
if w in data:
return data[w]

elif w.title() in data:
return data[w.title()]

elif w.upper() in data:
return data[w.upper()]

elif len(gm(w, data.keys()))>0:
j = input("did you mean %s?"% gm(w, data.keys())[0])

if j == ("y" or "Y"):
return data[gm(w,data.keys())[0]]

elif j == ("n" or"N"):
return "the word does not exists"
else:
return "invalid entry"

else:
return "the word doesnt exist"

op = search()

if type(op)==list:
for i,j in enumerate(op,1):
print(i,j)

Answer 1

use "j in ('y','Y')" or
"j == 'y' or j == 'Y'"
