[New-bugs-announce] [issue23116] Python Tutorial 4.7.1: Improve ask_ok() to cover more input values

[Amy]

New submission from Amy:

https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/controlflow.html#default-argument-values
def ask_ok(prompt, retries=4, complaint='Yes or no, please!'):
    while True:
        ok = input(prompt)

Suggestion: change to "ok = input(prompt).lower()" in order to cover values with capitalized characters such as "Yes" or "NO".
