Hi, I need help figuring out why Switch 3 is being printed no matter what. It does this properly for switch 1 and 2, but continues to print switch 3 as on, when it is off. Here is the picture of my code, sorry it’s not really legible...

 

EDIT: These are generic brand light switches from Walmart for $0.67 a piece, couldn’t resist. They work well too.

use different variable name fo input_value like input_value1 , input_value2,input_value3

and after the first if statement use elif

like this 

input_value1
if input_value1 == false :
whatever
input_value2
elif input_value2 == false :
whatever

input_value3
elif input_value3 == false :
whatever

 

if it was useful give it a like :) btw if your into linux pay a visit here

So I did elif statements and the terminal is still getting spammed by saying switch 3 is on

 

Is this code correct?

I DID notice when I switched Switch 3 to True, it would stop, but the light switch is now inverted which will annoy me. Anything there?

@mahyar K. Here it is. I am not using pullup resistors because they worked fine without, with no bouncing

That’s literally what I’ve just read 5 mins ago. It works well, no repeated echo. I would call this thread a success. Thank you for sticking around the 1 hour and 30 some minutes you did
