Control Flow – if, elif, else

Control flow in programming allows decisions to be made based on specific conditions. The chapter highlights the use of if, elif, and else statements to manage program logic, emphasizing the significance of indentation and the concept of nested conditions for creating complex decision-making processes.

    Control Flow – If, Elif, Else

    This section introduces control flow in Python using if, elif, and else statements for decision-making.

  • 4.1

    What Is Control Flow?

    Control flow in programming allows decision-making and code execution based on conditions using statements like if, elif, and else.

  • 4.2

    The If Statement

    The if statement allows a program to execute a block of code only when a specified condition is true.

  • 4.3

    The Else Statement

    The 'else' statement in Python allows programs to execute a block of code when an 'if' condition is false, facilitating decision-making in control flow.

  • 4.4

    The Elif Statement

    The 'elif' statement in Python allows for checking multiple conditions in control flow structures.

  • 4.5

    Indentation Is Crucial

    Indentation is essential in Python programming for defining code blocks, specifically within if, elif, and else statements.

  • 4.6

    Nested Conditions

    Nested conditions allow for more complex decision-making processes in programming by placing one if statement inside another.

  • 4.7

    Try It Yourself

    This section encourages learners to write programs using if, elif, and else statements to enhance their understanding of control flow in Python.
