How do I use if, elif, and else statements in Python?

In Python, you can use if, elif, and else to control the flow of your program based on conditions. For example:

x = 10
if x < 5:
    print('x is less than 5')
elif x == 10:
    print('x is 10')
else:
    print('x is greater than 5')

Can you explain how the elif works in that example?

Sure! The elif statement allows you to check multiple conditions. If the first if condition is false, it checks the elif condition next. If that is true, it executes the block under elif.

What happens if none of the conditions are true?

If none of the if or elif conditions are true, the code under the else block will execute, providing a default action.

Can I have multiple elif statements?

Yes, you can have as many elif statements as you need to check different conditions!
