# answering machine blocks challenges
Coding challenges for the answering machine tutorial.
## Before we get started
Complete the [answering machine](/lessons/answering-machine/activity) activity and your code will look like this:
```blocks
basic.showString("ASK ME A QUESTION")
```
## Challenge 1
Now we need to reply after someone asks @boardname@ a yes or no question. We want to respond `YES` when button `A` is pressed. Add a condition for button `A` and inside it show the string `YES`.
```blocks
basic.showString("ASK ME A QUESTION")
input.onButtonPressed(Button.A, () => {
basic.showString("Yes")
})
```
* `Run` the code to see if it works as expected.
## Challenge 2
What if @boardname@'s answer to the question is no? Let's have `NO` be displayed when button `B` is pressed. Add a condition for button `B` and inside it show the string `NO`.
```blocks
basic.showString("ASK ME A QUESTION")
input.onButtonPressed(Button.A, () => {
basic.showString("Yes")
})
input.onButtonPressed(Button.B, () => {
basic.showString("NO")
})
```
* `Run` the code to see if it works as expected.
## Challenge 3
When you are asked a yes or no question, do you always say yes or no? Add a condition for `on shake` that displays `MAYBE`.
