Hello, the code is the following:

# -*- coding: latin-1 -*-

def login():
    user_incorreto = False
    while not user_incorreto:
        user_incorreto = ver_login()
        
    senha_incorreta = False
    while not senha_incorreta:
        senha_incorreta = ver_senha()
        
    sessoes()
    
    
def ver_login():
    print("\nLOGIN\n")  
    inf_user = input("\nType your user: ")
    if inf_user == "Pedro" or "pedro":
        return True
    else:
        print("\nInexistent or unallowed user.")
        return False

In def ver_login(),line 3:
if inf_user == "Pedro" or "pedro":
I wish to be possible to type in any of these options, "Pedro" and "pedro" to return True
I know that the sintax is wrong, but what could i do to achieve what i wish?

That's not how the or operator works (see here for details). Handling case insensitive matches is usually done as if inf_user.lower() == 'pedro':. That is, lowercase the input before checking it for a match.

Thanks a lot. How do I make that inf_user variable become global?

You don't. Global variables are a bad idea. They make your code confusing, and thus harder to debug and maintain. Parameters and return values make it clearer what is going on in your functions. See the function tutorial on how to do that.
