why is the code running with no issues but only displaying the 'else' print out in my &#03-CodePudding

Erick = input ("Kobia, what's ur favourite team ?")
print (" ")

if Erick.upper() == "manchester city":

    print ('All hail Pep.')
    print ('Heri nyinyi kuliko Man united,')
    print ('Liverpool have been awful this season.')
 
else: 
    print ('Arsenal gladly sit on top of the table.')

print (" ")

When I input manchester city, the code only prints out the 'else' part of the function

Whatever I type in, the code prints out the 'else' part of the function

what might the problem be ?

CodePudding user response：

Try this code where I have only add .upper() to the string 'manchester city':

Erick = input("Kobia, what's ur favourite team ?")
print(" ")

if Erick.upper() == "manchester city".upper():

    print('All hail Pep.')
    print('Heri nyinyi kuliko Man united,')
    print('Liverpool have been awful this season.')

else:
    print('Arsenal gladly sit on top of the table.')

print(" ")

You can input 'manchester city', 'Manchester City', and so on and all inputs are OK for the if condition.

CodePudding user response：

Change condition Erick.upper() == "manchester city" to Erick.lower() == "manchester city"

Because with your code you are comparing MANCHESTER CITY with manchester city
