difference between if and elif conditions

Hi Muhammad!

Thanks for reaching out!

elif is used within an if statement to add additional conditions that are checked sequentially. If a condition is met, the subsequent elif and else blocks are skipped, making the code more efficient for mutually exclusive conditions. On the other hand, using separate if statements means each condition is checked independently, regardless of whether previous conditions were true, which can be useful when multiple conditions might be true simultaneously or when the conditions are unrelated.

Hope this helps.

Best,

Ivan
