title: Assigning a value to a variable based on a boolean choice
body: <pre><code>vacationDeduction=200
  vacationCheck=input('Has your employee taken 3 or more days of vacation this month? y/n: ')
      if vacationCheck=='n' is True:
          vacationDeduction=0
      elif vacationCheck=='y' is True:
          vacationDeduction=200
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>In this piece of code, I'm attempting to make the program assign the variable with a value of either 0 or 200 so that it may be subtracted from a certain calculation later in the code. Unfortnately, the program refuses to accept the <code>n</code> value, and as such always sees <code>vacationDeduction</code> as 200, ruining the calculation. How can I make it so that the program accepts <code>n</code>, and as such assigns the correct variable to <code>vacationDeduction</code>?</p>
