I did it like this:

answer = input(" What is the Answer to the Great Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything? ").lower().strip()

match answer:
case "42" | "forty two" | "forty-two":
print("Yes")
case _:
print("No")

I used replace() to get rid of hyphens if the user writes them

right1 = "42"
right2 = "forty two"
answer = input("What's the meaning of life?: ").replace("-", " ").lower().strip()
if answer == right2 or answer == right2
print("Correct")

Here i am on first assignment, cheating already xD

[chooselife]

1 answer = input ("What's the answer?") .strip()
2
3 if answer . lower() in ["42", "forty two", "forty-two"]:
4 ....print("Yes")
5
6 else:
7 ....print ("No")

i just added another replace("-", " ") to the chain, then "forty two" or "42" is enough.

str_input = input('What is the Answer to the Great Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything?')

formated_str = str_input.lower().strip().replace('-', ' ')
valid_words = ['forty', 'two']

valid_number_answer = formated_str.isnumeric() and float(formated_str) == 42
valid_str_answer = any(word in formated_str for word in valid_words)

print('Yes') if valid_number_answer or valid_str_answer else print('No')

answer = input("What is the Answer to the Great Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything? ").casefold().strip()
