"or" Condition Causing Problems With "if"

I'm having trouble with an or condition in a function. The if statement keeps evaluating as True no matter what value choice is. When I remove the or, the if works correctly. def

Solution 1:

'a' evaluates to True, so you need to construct your if statement correctly.

def chooseDim( ):
**choice = input ('Do you need to find radius or area? ')
ifchoice== 'A'orchoice== 'a':**
    area = 0
    area = int(area)
    areaSol ( )

elifchoice== 'R'orchoice== 'r':

    radSol ( )

else:
    print ('Please enter either A/a or R/r.')
    chooseDim ( )

Solution 2:

The answers about or itself are correct. You're literally asking if "a" is True, which it always is. But there's an alternative approach:

if choice in'Aa':

Then again, there's nothing wrong with:

if choice.lower() == 'a':

Solution 3:

ifchoice== 'A'orchoice=='a':
