Selection in Python
Selection in Python refers to the use of conditional statements to control the flow of a program based on specific conditions. The primary keywords used are `if`, `elif` (short for "else if"), and `else`. --- **1. Basic `if` Statement** - Executes a block of code **only if** a condition is `True`. - **Syntax**: ```python if condition: # code to execute if condition is True ``` **Example**: ```python num = 10 if num > 0: print("Positive number") ``` --- **2. `if-else` Statement** - Executes one block if a condition is `True`, and another block if it is `False`. - **Syntax**: ```python if condition: # code if True else: # code if False ``` **Example**: ```python num = -5 if num >= 0: print("Non-negative") else: print("Negative") ``` --- **3. `if-elif-else` Statement** - Checks multiple conditions in sequence.
