Alright i made some code and it seems to only be working for lower case and im trying to get upper case to work can someone please help.

var firstname, lastname : string


put "type your first name"
get firstname
delay (100)
put "type you last name"
get lastname
delay (100)

if lastname <= "j" or lastname <= "J" then
put "you are in group one"
elsif lastname >= "h" or lastname >= "H" then
put "you are in group two"
end if

Turing:

if (lastname >= "a" and lastname <= "j") or (lastname >= "A" and lastname <= "J") then     put "you are in group one" else     put "you are in group two" end if

^This should help. You dont need to have an elsif.
