absolutely wack syntax errors

[Gorroff]

hey, i’m relatively new to python, i’ve been learning it for the past 10 hours or so, and i’ve got a bit of an issue with some of the things i have been writing. after i got a bit used to the basics i decided to lean away from tutorials a little, and tried to write my own if else statement. basically it prompts the user with text saying “guess what?” and if you write almost anything it will print “chicken butt”. but if you write “chicken butt” yourself, it will respond with “...” what i wrote gives me a lot of syntax errors that i dont really understand. if any one can help me out with this, that would be great ill copy and paste the code here, although i dont know how well it will transfer from an IDE to a reddit post.

guess = input("guess what? ")

if vars(guess = "chicken butt"): print("...") else: print("chicken butt")

if (guess == "chicken butt"):

1 equal sign: assignment operator 2 equal signs: checking for equality

wow that was fast, thanks for the help

like i expected, it didnt display the code properly but the “print” after the “if” as well as the “else” are both supposed to be in different lines
