Summary of Python Keywords and Functions¶
And - The keyword
andis used to join two logical expressions and then both of the logical expressions must be true for the joined expression to be true.Else - The keyword
elseis used to execute one or more statements in a block following theelsewhen the condition in theifpart of the statement is false. Anelsemust always have anifstatement before it.Elif - The keyword
elifis used when you want to have a conditional with 3 or more possibile options. Add as manyelifstatements as you need after anifand before aelse.If - The Python keyword
ifis used to start a condition. It is followed by a Boolean expression and then has one or more statements in the body of the loop that are executed only if the Boolean expression is true.Not - The keyword
notis used to negate a logical expression. If the original expression is true the negated expression is false and if the original expression is false the negated expression is true.Str - The function
strturns a number into a string so that it can be appended to a string.
