Card 5: If / Else

Module 2: Making Decisions

1 The Hook

The IF Statement is like a Club Bouncer.

It checks your ID (Condition).

Notice the colon (:) and the indentation.

password = input("Password: ") # Ask for password

if password == "1234": # CHECK: Is it "1234"? Note the COLON :

print("Welcome!") # Indented: Runs only if True

else: # OTHERWISE (if False)

print("Wrong!") # Indented: Runs only if False

age is 15. What prints?

if age >= 18:
print("Vote")
else:
print("Wait")

main.py

score = 75
if score > 50:
    print("Passed")
else:
    print("Failed")

Terminal Output

BRONZE (MODIFY)

1. Copy the code.
2. Change the Threshold from 50 to 90.
3. Run it to check if it says "Failed" (because 75 is not > 90).

score = 75
if score > 50:
print("Winner")

bronze.py

score = 75
if score > 50:
    print("Winner")
else:
    print("Failed")

SILVER (FIX)

The code below is broken. We forgot the Colon (:)!
Fix it so it runs.

silver.py

choice = "yes"
if choice == "yes"
    print("You said yes!")

GOLD (MAKE)

1. Ask the user for a pin (stored as text).
2. If pin == "1234", print "Unlock".
3. Else, print "Locked".
