Num == 7

Question

What is the reason it didn’t also print a 7? Isn’t Num == 7 a true statement?

Answer 1

Bacause the if statements are bad indented

Answer 2

No worries, Brian Yaguchi
You should be able to edit a post by clicking the three vertical dots on the top right corner.

Anyway, for your code, the reason the num==7 condition is not evaluated is that it's nested within the "if num<5" block. So when it sees that num is not less than 5, it doesn't even check the other stuff in the block. If you change the indentation like this, things should work out fine:

num = 7
if > 3:
print(“3”)
if num < 5:
print(“5”)
if num == 7:
print(“7”)

Please let me know if you need any further help :)

Answer 6

im sorry i didnt even mean to link that post and i coildnt figure out how to delete it. I’m new 🙄. it was the last question in the if statements module:

num = 7
if > 3:
print(“3”)
if num < 5:
print(“5”)
if num == 7:
print(“7”)
