Python Tutorial 3.1 - Conditional Statements in Python

Welcome to the "Conditional Statements" tutorial!

Overview

Conditional statements allow your code to execute different actions based on different conditions. In Python, these are managed using the if, elif, and else keywords.

Key Concepts

• if Statement:
  Executes a block of code if a specified condition is true.

• elif Statement:
  Checks additional conditions if the previous if (or elif) condition was false.

• else Statement:
  Executes a block of code if all preceding conditions are false.

Example

temperature = 25

if temperature > 30:
    print("It's a hot day.")
elif temperature < 10:
    print("It's a cold day.")
else:
    print("The weather is moderate.")

Key Takeaways

• Use the if statement to begin a conditional block.
• elif provides additional condition checks.
• else catches all conditions not met above.

Happy coding!
