This document covers Python conditions and branching, including comparison operators, Boolean logic, if/else/elif statements, and practical examples for decision-making in code.

Introduction

Conditions and branching in Python allow programs to make decisions based on comparisons and logical operations. These features are essential for controlling program flow.

Comparison Operators

Comparison operations compare values and produce Boolean results:

Operator	Description	Example	Result
==	Equal to	6 == 7	False
!=	Not equal to	2 != 6	True
>	Greater than	6 > 5	True
<	Less than	2 < 6	True
>=	Greater or equal	5 >= 5	True
<=	Less or equal	2 <= 5	True

Comparison can be applied to numbers and strings.
