Can you summarize what you’ve understood in the above steps?

The result will be the same whether you attend tomorrow’s meeting or not.

The sentence is grammatically correct. However, it could be more concise by stating, "The result will be the same whether you attend tomorrow’s meeting." The phrase "or not" is redundant, as it is already implied by the use of "whether."

No change

The result will be the same as soon as you attend tomorrow’s meeting or not.

The sentence is incorrect because the phrase 'as soon as' suggests an immediate cause-effect relationship between attending or not attending the meeting and the outcome. However, the sentence already implies that the outcome is independent of attendance, making the emphasis on immediacy unnecessary.

as soon as

The result will be the same whenever you attend tomorrow’s meeting or not.

The sentence is incorrect because "whenever" implies an indefinite time, while "tomorrow’s meeting" is specific. It creates confusion, as ""whenever"" suggests any time, but the rest of the sentence refers to a specific event happening tomorrow. Use "whether" instead for clarity.

whenever

The result will be the same once you attend tomorrow’s meeting or not.

The sentence is incorrect because "once" implies a specific time when an action occurs, but "or not" introduces uncertainty, making it contradictory. Use "whether" instead of "once" to convey that the result will be the same whether you attend tomorrow’s meeting or not.
