Python 2.7：如果代码块不起作用

Question

I have tested out the following program, and there are no errors. But whenever I enter "hangman" it won't start the new block of if statement code named "if response_2" . Why is it not running it?

    response_2 = raw_input("What would you like to play? Hangman or Word Guess?")
    if response_2 == ("Hangman", "hangman"):
        print "Running Hangman..."
        print "Catching Criminals..."
        print "Building Gallows..."
        print "Getting that one song boy from Pirate's of the Carribean"
    elif response_2 == ("Word_Guess", "word_guess", "word guess", "Word Guess", "Word guess", "word Guess", "Word_guess", "word_Guess"):
        print "Not completed yet"

Answer 1

This is because you are directly comparing to the tuple with == , which will always give False as the raw_input gives a string, not a tuple . You need to check if any one of the responses is in the sequence. Do this with in :

if response in ('Hangman', 'hangman'):

Likewise with the similar comparison within the elif .
