Hi, hope you're doing good.Could someone please tell me why does the while loop not stop when I type in rock, paper or scissors?

Here's the code: while True: choices = ["rock", "paper", "scissors"] user_choice = input("What is your choice, rock,paper or scissors: ") if not user_choice == choices[0] or choices[1] or choices[2]: print("Please enter rock, paper or scissors! ")

This should be the code: while True: choices = ["rock", "paper", "scissors"] user_choice = input("What is your choice, rock,paper or scissors: ") if user_choice not in choices: print("Please enter rock, paper or scissors! ")

The loop still doesn't break. Maybe you want somethin like this? https://code.sololearn.com/cvqS2ZFQ0i9n/?ref=app

Lochard he never asked for it to break, he asked for the loop to work. it was best if he figured the rest out himself

He asked why the while loop does not stop when he types in one of the choices in the title. So I guess that's what he wants. You are right about letting him figure out though. I guess I just wanted to practice coding.
