Hi John.

Answer to your what:

def valid_command?(command)
  if (command == "y" || command == "yes" || command == "Y" || command == "YES")
    return true
  end
end

I wants you to use the or operator ( || ) in a if statement and check if the input argument string matches any of the arguments that are set to the method. If they match you return true ( boolean value true ).

Hope this helped.
