anyway, your problem is when you use "and" ot "or" commands,

you should repeat your self: if a=1 and a=2 and a=3 or a=4 or a=4....

input "put in a number from the list: 1,2,4,5,6 ", number

if number= 1 or number= 3 then print "hi"
if number= 4 or number =6 then print "hello"
if number= 2 or number =5 then print "hi'ya"
wait key

Works as well Try telling the OR statement what the OR is about

you see vivi, in your code

if number= 1 or 3 then print "hi"
if number= 4 or 6 then print "hello"
if number= 2 or 5 then print "hi'ya"

you check to see if 3 = 3. Or 3 is the same thing as saying
if 3
then
and the IF statement looks for a value greater than 0, and since 3 is greater than 0 it assumes all 3 inputs are true, and will print everything
