Conditional statements can contain a block of code that is arbitrary. It can contain print statements, it can contain variable assignments and it can even contain other if/else blocks.
if name == 'Anna':
print('Hello, Anna')
salary = 1000
if not 18 <= age <= 30:
print('You are not Anna, stop lying')
salary = -1
else:
if name == 'Bob':
print('How are you doing, Bob?')
salary = 900
else:
print('I probably do not know you...')
This is one example of how the nesting of conditional statements could be written. It can go even deeper:
if a:
...
else:
if b:
...
else:
if c:
if d:
...
else:
...
So, blocks of code are indented with 4 spaces, and the body of an if statement appears “inside” the statement. The body of an if/else statement can be arbitrary and can contain other if/else statements.
Challenge
Write a program that would input a name and if the name is Alice, would greet Alice with Hey there! and otherwise would print I don't know you. The program should also read the salary Alice wants and should print Sounds good if the salary is below 10000, otherwise, it should print Let's discuss this a little.
