Hello! here is my explanation: num = 7 <---This is the given value *if num > 3: <----This is the 1st condition, if it´s not satisfied then the program goes to condition #2 print("3") *if num < 5: <---- This is the second condition,if not satisfied goes to condition #3 print("5") *if num ==7: <----This is the third and final condition. print("7") As we can note, the number given is 7 and 7==7 right? Mathematically it is true, but the "If" condition in the program evaluates the input in a logical way as I explained above: Value given, if condition #1 is true the program ends, if not then evaluates condition #2, and so on. Because the first condition is TRUE (7 is greater than 3) then the program ends and the result is 3 because that is the instruction( print("3")). *P.D. In fact we will never get to the final condition (7==7) because the program would end immediately in the first condition. *P.D. Sorry if I do not explain myself clearly.

if you get 7 from input and check it against 7, remember input by default is a string. If that is what you are doing, you would actually be checking "7"==7 which is false. couple ways to fix that, int(input()) for one will get the input as an integer.

It is true but in the last question the second indentation is false so the program doesnt pass to the next if statement

the output of that is 3 7 the reason being the first if statement is true. Num IS larger than 3 .. and the last if statement is true 7 does equal 7

The result depend on the indentation: num = 7 if num > 3: print("3") if num < 5: print("5") if num ==7: print("7") Gives you an indentation error. num = 7 if num > 3: print("3") if num < 5: print("5") if num ==7: print("7") The outcome is 3. num = 7 if num > 3: print("3") if num < 5: print("5") if num ==7: print("7") The outcome is 3 and 7.
