Hello

I have a case in my code , where I am asking user to input either Y or N and if they enter something else I want them to re enter , so I have written a while loop such that

   print "Do you wish to update (Y/N)?\n";
  
     
     my $choice = <>;
     chomp $choice;

 while ($choice ne "Y" || $choice ne "y" || $choice ne "N" || $choice 
+ne "n")

but eve if I press Yor N , the flow enters this while loop . so I cant can't understand why ?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
