Re: Silly While Loop Problems

Time to go look at your truth tables, even after taking into account the newline.

while (lc($yn) ne "y" || lc($yn) ne "n")

lc($yn) lc($yn) ne "y" lc($yn) ne "n" lc($yn) ne "y"||lc($yn) ne "n"

y false true true

n true false true

* true true true

lc($yn)	lc($yn) ne "y"	lc($yn) ne "n"	lc($yn) ne "y"\|\|lc($yn) ne "n"
y	false	true	true
n	true	false	true
*	true	true	true

I think you mean AND, not OR.
