Syntax of the if statement:

if (condition): Start

Statement(s)
Input Age
The if statement starts with the keyword if, followed by a condition

and ends with a colon(:). The condition is essentially an expression
(comparison) that gives True or False as an answer. False
Is Age>18?
After the if condition, on the next line, write an indented block
of statements. When the condition evaluates to true, the block of True

statements given below it is executed; otherwise, it is skipped and
control flows to the statement after if. Print ‘Eligible’

Here, if the age of the user is more than or equal to 18, ‘Eligible’ will
be printed, otherwise nothing will be printed. Stop
