PLEASE HELP. everything i have tried is not working.

THE FULL QUESTION IS BELOW

Use input() to ask the user if they want to start the movie.

If they answer anything other than "n" or "N", print "Enjoy the show!". Otherwise, call sys.exit(). You'll need to import the sys library.

firedoor.py 
import sys
play_movie = input("do you want to start the movie now? enter n/N to reject or any other to accept")
if play_movie != "n":
    print("Enjoy the show!")
else:
    sys.exit()

The instructions say you must check for both "n" (lower case) and "N" (capital) in the input response.

You could either convert the case of the input, or check for each one individually.
