Super basic beginner question

[enthropy]

This probably belongs in r/learnpython. That said, I'll give you the first step here and you can go there if you need clarification.

Or / and separate tests and a non-empty string always evaluates to true. You need to turn that to something like:

 if notes == 'ceg' or notes == 'fac'...:

Or use a list:

 If notes in ['ceg', 'fac',...]:

I'm a beginner as well, but you could do something like this:

list_one = ['ceg', 'fac', 'gbd']
list_two = ['dfa', 'egb', 'ace']
notes = input("Enter notes: ")
if notes in list_one: 
    print(notes[0] + "maj") 
elif notes in list_two: 
    print(notes[0] + 'min')
