end
end

——————-

this is my code can someone tell what is wrong with it.

since you are reading the question from the user, when checking it you should do this

if question == "on" then
  -- code
elseif question == "off" then
  -- code
else
  -- code
end

Also when you get error messages, please post them, it helps us help you quicker…
Also please try to use [code][/code] tags around your code
