Python strings have a number of handy built-in methods. One of them is .endswith(), which checks to see if the string ends with another string. And of course, you can always change a string to lower case with the .lower() method. And, you can chain methods together if you want to do more than one of them to the same string.
I'm betting with these hints you can figure it out.
