why does this if-statement not work?

Question

x = input("value of x")

if x > 60:
print ("uw bagage is te zwaar")

elif x < 60:
print ("u mag door lopen")

Answer 1

Because the input function always returns a string, so your x variable is a string and you are trying to do math with it.
You must use int() to convert it.
wrap your input function inside an int() function. Like this:

x = int(input("value of x"))

And leave the rest of your code unchanged and test it. Hope it helps.

Answer 2

that doesn't work:-\

Answer 3

and you must modify x to be x=int(input("value of x")) and also you can use float if you want

Answer 4

here you go

x = input("value of x")

if int(x) > 60:
print ("uw bagage is te zwaar")

elif int(x) < 60:
print ("u mag door lopen")

did you forgot x==60? because your program wont do anything if user inputs exactly 60.

Answer 5

x = int(input("value of x")
that is enough to let it perfectly work

Answer 6

you must end if/elif statment by else
replace elif by else
