Modify the valid_command? method to return true when passed the following values: "y", "yes", "Y", or "YES".

Not understanding this challenge.

def valid_command?(command)

end

Hi Ira, I'm going to take a swing at your problem with the information you have given.

def valid_command? command
  if (command == 'y' || command == 'Y' || command == 'yes' || command == 'YES')
    return true
  end
end

There are much better looking ways to achieve this but here it is in it's rawest form. If you would attach the link to the problem or be a little more descriptive I'll be more useful.
