Use input() to ask the user if they want to start the movie. If they answer anything other than "n" or "N" print "Enjoy

answer = input("Do you want to start the movie")
if answer = "n" or "N"
   print("Enjoy the show!")
else:
   sys.exit()

help please!

  1. you need to import the sys library

  2. You forgot a semicolon (:) at the end of your if statement

  3. You had to use double equals (==) instead of a single one in your if statement because we are comparing

  4. do answer.lower() != "n" isntead of what you got. otherwise you have to do this:

 answer != "n" or answer != "N"

add import sys , so you can use sys.exit(), also in if statement you have something wrong , if they type "n" it will show "Enjoy the show"

hope this helps

import sys

answer = input("Do you want to start the movie?")

if answer.lower() != "n":
    print("Enjoy the show")
else:
    sys.exit()
