Beginning Python (Video 19)

This video tutorial introduces the use of 'else' and 'elif' keywords in Python's if statements. It explains how 'else' extends an if statement to execute code when the condition is false, and how 'elif' allows for multiple conditional checks in sequence. Examples demonstrate these concepts with both string and numerical conditions. The video concludes with a preview of further exploration into conditional logic using 'and', 'or', and 'not' operators.

What is the purpose of the 'else' keyword in an if statement?

Explain how the 'if' and 'elif' keywords work together in conditional statements.

Describe a scenario where you would use multiple 'if' statements instead of 'elif'.

What is the significance of checking multiple conditions in a single 'if' statement?

What happens if none of the conditions in a series of 'if' statements are met?

How can you use the 'else' statement to handle unexpected values?

In what way can the 'if' statement be used with numerical comparisons?
