Decisions: if, elif, else

5. If, Elif and Else

Conditional statements allow your program to make decisions.

  • if: Executes code when a condition is true.
  • elif: Checks another condition.
  • else: Executes code when all previous conditions are false.
temperature = 30 
if temperature > 35:
print("Too hot!")
elif temperature > 25:
print("Warm temperature")
else:
print("Temperature is normal")

Robotics example:

button = True
if button:
print("LED ON")
else:
print("LED OFF")
