# Lesson 04: Conditionals
|
||
#
|
||
# Conditionals let your program make decisions: "if this is true, do that;
|
||
# otherwise, do something else." The keywords are: if, elif, else.
|
||
#
|
||
# Indentation matters in Python! Everything inside an if block must be
|
||
# indented by the same amount (typically 4 spaces).
|
||
#
|
||
# To run this file:
|
||
# python 04_conditionals.py
|
||
|
||
# --- Basic if statement ---
|
||

|
||
|
||
if temperature > 30:
|
||
print("It's hot outside!")
|
||
|
||
# --- if / else ---
|
||
# The else block runs when the if condition is False.
|
||

||
|
||
if is_raining:
|
||
print("Bring an umbrella.")
|
||
else:
|
||
print("No umbrella needed.")
|
||
|
||
# --- if / elif / else ---
|
||
# Use elif (short for "else if") to check multiple conditions in sequence.
|
||
# Python checks each condition top to bottom and stops at the first True one.
