What are elif statements in Python?

Can you explain what elif statements are in Python?

Sure! 'elif' stands for 'else if' and is used in conditional statements to check multiple expressions.

How does it differ from if and else?

An 'if' statement checks a condition, 'else' provides an alternative if the 'if' is false, and 'elif' allows for additional conditions.

Can you give me an example of using elif?

Of course! Here's a simple example:

x = 10
if x < 5:
    print('x is less than 5')
elif x < 15:
    print('x is between 5 and 15')
else:
    print('x is 15 or more')

What happens if I don't use elif?

If you don't use 'elif', you can only check one condition at a time, which may lead to less efficient code.
