Wondering where the problem of my code is...

Question

I am new on coding,and just started python. Just learned if and else statements. my code in question is...

x = 7
if x == 7:
if x > 4:
if x < 2:
print ("yes")
else:
print("no")

since the third statement is false,Shouldn’t it print ‘no’ ?
I do not get any output after running this code. however if i run it without the third statement,i get ‘Yes’

Answer 1

Ahnaf Inan Your "else" block is only applicable for the first "if" statement here, and as it's True, the "else" block isn't executed. Try this code:

x = 7
if x == 7 and x > 4 and x < 2:
print("yes")
else:
print("no")

The result is always "no" as no number can be greater than 4 and less than 2, simultaneously.
