If Statement in Python

The simplest form of the if statement python tests a condition and check if the condition evaluates to true then it carries out some instructions otherwise and if the condition is false then it does nothing.

In general form its syntax is shown below figure.

if<conditional expression>:

    statement 1

    statement 2

Where statement may be a single statement, a compound statement or just a pass statement.

Example –

            ch= input (“Enter a character”)

                    If ch>=0 and ch<=9:

                            Print (“you have entered a digit”)

After getting input in Ch. the above code compares the value of Ch. if value of Ch. falls between the character 0-9, the condition evaluates to True, then it will execute statements in the if-body that means it will print the message saying “you have entered a digit”

Similarly, let’s have an another example for more understanding

          ch=input (“please enter a character”)

          If ch == ”   ” :

                Print (“you have entered a space”)

                      If ch>=’0’ and ch<=’9’

                             Print (“you have entered a digit”)

Read carefully the above code example and try to find out the result yourself.

Now have a look in some other examples of conditional expression in if statement.

If marks >=90:

    Print (“you did very well”)

If a>b:

    Print (“a is bigger than b”)

If x:

    Print (“x has truth value as true”)
