The code doesn't work
The code is supposed to count the number of vowels in a string and it doesn't work? x = input("Enter a string:") z = 0 y =0 for i in x: if i== 'a' or 'A': y +=1 elif i == 'e' or 'E': y +=1 elif i == 'i' or 'I': y +=1 elif i == 'o' or 'O': y +=1 elif i== 'u' or 'U': y +=1 else: z = 0 print("the output:", y)

It should be
if i == 'a' or i == 'A'.
An alternative is
if i in 'aA'
or much simpler
if i in 'aeiouAEIOU'.

Or turn the i to lower case and get rid of all or statements
for i in x:
i = i.lower()
if(i in "aeiou"):
y += 1
