Multiple if statements under one code, with multiple conditons [duplicate]

Answer 1

It's because:

if word == "A" or "B":

isn't the same as

if word == "A" or word == "B":

The first evaluates (is word == "A") logical_or ("B")

So the first version always evaluations to true. Here's an example:

>>> X = "asdf"
>>> if(X):
...     print("hurray")
... 
hurray
>>>
