WHAT IS ELIF

 

What the elif is this?


  • The elif command (which stands for 'elseif') allows you to ask 2, 3, 4 or 142 questions using the same input! This command must be in a certain place. You can have as many elif statements as you want, but they must go in between if and else and have the same indentation. The print statements in your elif command need to line up with the indent of the other print statements.

EXAMPLE : 

print("SECURE LOGIN")
username = input("Username > ")
password = input("Password> ")

if username == "mark" and password == "password":
 print("Welcome Mark!")

elif username == "suzanne":
 print("Hey there Suzanne!")

else:
 print("Go away!")

IF AND ELSE STATEMENT

  If Statements    These statements are a bit like asking a question. You are telling the computer:  if  something is true,  then  do this specific block of code. Double equals ( == ) is asking the computer to compare if these two things are  exactly  the same.  EXAMPLE :  myName = input("What's your name?: ") if myName == "David":  What is else? IF  the condition is  not  met with the  if  statement, then we want the computer to do the  else  part instead. Likewise, if the condition  is  met in the  if  statement, then the  else  bit is ignored by the computer. The  else  statement must be the first thing  unindented  after the  if  statement and in line with it    EXAMPLE :  myName = input("What's your name?: ") if myName == "David":  print("Welcome Dude!")  print("You're just the baldest dude I've ever seen...

FOR LOOP , RANGE

  FOR LOOP  A  while  loop is perfect to use when we  don't  know how many times we want the loop to repeat.  If we have an idea of how many times we want the loop to repeat, we can use a  for  loop to loop code in exactly the same way the  while  loop did.  EXAMPLE :  for counter in range(10):   print(counter) RANGE  The  range  function creates a list of numbers in the range you create. If you only give it one number, it will start at  0  and move to a state where the final number is  one less  than the number in the brackets. In this case, the final number would be  9 .  EXAMPLE :  total = 0 for number in range(100) :   total += number   print(total)

Parameters , Call the Subroutine , Adding More Arguments

  Parameters In a subroutine, the  ()  are for the argument (FYI argument is another word for parameter). These are the pieces of information we pass to the code. These can be variable names that are made up for the first time within the argument  () . EXAMPLE : def whichCake(ingredient):   if ingredient == "chocolate":     print("Mmm, chocolate cake is amazing")   elif ingredient == "broccoli":     print("You what mate?!")   else:      print("Yeah, that's great I suppose...") How do we call the subroutine? We call it in the same way as before. However, instead of leaving the  ()  blank, we send the code a message.   EXAMPLE : def whichCake("chocolate"):   if ingredient == "chocolate":     print("Mmm, chocolate cake is amazing")   elif ingredient == "broccoli":     print("You what mate?!")   else:      print("Yeah, that's great I suppose...")  Addin...
