Here's an example of using the difflib SequenceMatcher.ratio() method. I arbitrarily picked .7 as a cutoff ratio but you can experiment with different numbers. At this cutoff, "hellish fiends" is similar enough to "hello friends" to pass but "hollow frogs" fails. https://code.sololearn.com/cV0IY8wfD38A/?ref=app

You miss the print statement within the else statement. a = input() if a == "hello friends": print("Hi") else : print("You are not allowed") Also, if you plan to fulfill the problem statement, I suggest using regex.

1. set input to lower case 2. check if input contains hello 3. check if input contains friend 4. check if len(input) is round about 13 5. split input to check borh words seperately. 6. check if set of input and set of hello friend are similiar (intersection)....

With PCRE regex flavor, you'd write sth as below to match it. (h|H)ello (f|F)riend(s)? Will accept, Hello friends hello friend hello Friend ...

No problem. I didn't know about it either, until I did some digging after reading your question. My old boss used to say: "It's highly likely somebody has solved a problem before" also "If something is too difficult, then you just haven't found an easier solution yet". Quite obvious, I know. However, if I remember those two ideas, I often get to a better solution.
