Answer 2

hi,
the code would look like this:
things = ['one', 'two', 'three', 'four']
txt = input("Enter a number in letters: ")
for word in things:
if word == txt:
print("Found ", word)
it is pretty straight forward, simple elements, if you need more explanations on it just let me know.

Answer 3

You could also simply do:

list = ["Item1", "Item2", "Item3"]
txt = input("Sample text")
if (txt in list):
print("txt in list!")

This isn't item specific though.

David Ashton so far I like the way you've done it, i'm a slow learner so right now I'm trying to understand how it works.
