    I too want to become a programmer
                                    like my sister. I will make a robot that
                                     can fly and do all my work instantly.

                        If a = 8, b = 2 and c = 20, then what will be the output of the following statements?

                        1.  print(a > b and b < c)   =
                        2.  print(a ** b + c)           =

                        3.  print(a, b, c)      =
                        4.  print(a > b or b > c)   =
                        5.  print(a // b – 2 + c)    =

                     There are situations in life where we must make decisions based on the circumstances. For example, if
                     it rains, we will stay at home, or else we will visit the market. Similar situations arise in programming as
                     well, where we need to make some decisions and, based on these decisions, execute a set of commands.
                     Whether the outcome is true or false, we must decide which action to take and which statement to
                     execute. In this chapter, we will learn about conditional statements in Python.

                     CONDITIONAL STATEMENTS

                     Conditional  statements, also  known  as  decision-making  or  control  flow  statements, are used  in
                     programming to execute different blocks of code based on certain conditions. The following conditional
                     statements are available in Python:
                        if statement

                        if...else statement
                        Nested if statement

                        if…elif…else ladder

                                                                                    Conditional  Statements in Python  123
