Multiple Statements

More than one conditional statement

You can put multiple conditions together in that statement.

Lets consider a situation where we want to go through all the numbers in a list and sum all the values that are between 4 and 7. For example is our list is: lst = [1,5,4,12,18,6] our result would be 5+4+6 = 15

Steps to a solution:

1. Create sum = 0
2. Iterate through list of numbers
3. If the number > 3 and number < 7, add it to the sum

Solution:

            

                
                    lst = [1,5,4,12,18,6]

#Initialize the sum
s = 0

#Iterate through all the numbers in the list
for number in lst:

  #if the number meets our condition, add it to the sum
  if (number > 3) and (number < 7):
    s += number

# Print out the sum after the loop
print(s)
                
            
        

Or Statements

As well, instead of using and, we can use the or statement. Lets say you have a list of words, and you only want to print out the word if it is more than 5 characters long or it contains the letter s.

For example, if our list was: lst = ['hello', 'world', 'I', 'really','like','cats']

we would want to print out:

really
cats

To do this we would implement the following code:

            

                
                    lst = ['hello', 'world', 'I', 'really','like','cats']

# Iterate through all the words
for word in lst:

  # Add our condition (more than 3 letters or contains 's')
  if (len(word) > 5) or ('s' in word ):

    # If it met our condition, print the wordexit
    print(word)
