if answer == 'yes'
# yes processing code
elsif answer == 'no'
# no processing code
else
# what to do when answer is neither yes nor no
end

thanks

Here's an alternative way using case statement that I personally find nicer:

case answer
when "yes"
# yes processing code
when "no"
# no processing code
else
$stderr.puts "Wrong answer: #{answer}"
end

Cheers
