If statement running even when not true

Question

I am not sure what I\'m doing wrong here, every time I run it, it goes through the if part even when it\'s not true? So the \'else\' never runs.

Answer 1

The problem is your if Statement:

if (choice == "F" or "f"){

basically, what you say here is: If choise is "F" or if "f". You need to understand: True is everything besides zero (0). "f" is NOT zero, so it is true. You could also wirte (or = ||):

if (coice == "F" || true)

which is the same like:

if (true)

So in order for your code to work, you need:

if (choice == "f" || choice == "F")

That would do what you expect.
