You should use and... Otherwise, when you enter mirror, it checks mirror != mirror, this returns false but mirror != lense returns true and false or true returns true... So x != "mirror" or x != lense returns true https://code.sololearn.com/cY6l7yL8W9Z7/?ref=app I advise you test it entering mirror, lense and another word on separate lines
