                            The if statement is the simplest conditional statement.

                            In  the if…else statement,  if the condition  evaluates  to  True,
                          the  indented block  following the  if statement  is  executed,
                          otherwise  the indented  block  after the else statement  is
                          executed.
                            Python allows the nested if statement.
                            The if…elif…else ladder helps us to test multiple conditions and
                          follows a top-down approach.
