Hi there, Safae Merigh ! I believe he might be referring to courses that have since been retired. Essentially, they were talking about a menu such that it prints out:

a)  Do this thing
b)  Do another thing

Then you would do something where you get the user's choice.

user_choice = input("Enter a or b:  ")

if user_choice == "a":
   # do this thing
elif user_choice == "b":
   # do another thing

He's attempting to show you another way to code up a menu without a huge if/elif/else structure :smiley:

Hope this helps! :sparkles:
