newbie help needed!!
This is what i've got i could do with some help, thanks!
s =3D raw_input ("How are you?")
if s.find('fine')>=3D0:
print "Im glad that your good!'
elif s.find('OK')>=3D0:
print "Happy to hear your OK!"
elif s.find('bad')>=3D0:
print "Hey look on the bright side, coud be worse!'
elif s.find('not too bad')>=3D0:
print " im glad to hear your good!"
The last line don't work!!! Help.
Also can i 'bunch' several words together like,
elif s.find('fine' or 'good' or 'OK' )>=3D0:
print "Glad that thinigs are going well!"
This line dont work either!!!
I've tried to play with this but ot no avail
There's also the thing about upper and lower case is that a major thing =
or will i forget about that for the time being.
Or ?? Am i going about this the right way, if i can 'bunch' several key =
words in the same statement the i could save a lot of typing, however is =
there a better method that a newbie might have a hope of understanding.
Help with ANY part of this would be great.
Thanks for your time, hope im not asking for too much!
Paul
