under the if statement is executed; otherwise, it is skipped.
if-else Statement

if

Syntax
If the condition is true, the code block under the if branch is
executed, and the code block under the else branch is skipped.
If the condition is false, the code block under the else branch is
executed, and the code block under the if branch is skipped.

if condition:
# code to be executed if the condition is true
else:
# code to be executed if the condition is false
Example
if-elif-else Statement
if

elif

el
se
if condition1:
# code to be executed if condition1 is true
elif condition2:
# code to be executed if condition2 is true
elif condition3:
# code to be executed if condition3 is true
else:
# code to be executed if none of the conditions are true
Example
