There is also a shorthand syntax for the if-else statement, that can be used when the condition is simple and the code blocks are short.
Here's an example:
if(a>b):
print("A")
elif(a==b):
print("=")
else:
pass
a = 2
b = 330
print("A") if a > b else print("B") if a=b else "" # it's pronunced as this: print("A") if a > b, else print("B") if a=b, else ""
You can also have multiple else statements on the same line:
One line if else statement, with 3 conditions:
a = 330
b = 330
print("A") if a > b else print("=") if a == b else print("B") # it's pronunced as this: print("A") if a > b, else print("=")
result = value_if_true if condition, else value_if_false
This syntax is equivalent to the following if-else statement:
if condition:
result = value_if_true
else:
result = value_if_false
The shorthand syntax can be a convenient way to write simple if-else statements, especially when you want to assign a value to a variable based on a condition.
However, it's not suitable for more complex situations where you need to execute multiple statements or perform more complex logic. In those cases, it's best to use the full if-else syntax.
