[Tutor] while x != 'n' or 'N' or 'l' or 'L':

I'm a beginner at all this, but I do think the above statement is much
clearer. However, I don't think anyone has shown how the original statement
should have looked. I know it helps me when I know why something doesn't
work, and I think I also misunderstood the same thing at one time.

The original statement:
while x != 'n' or 'N' or 'l' or 'L':

Should have been:
while x != 'n' or x != 'N' or x != 'l' or x != 'L':
