if 5==15/3: here why ":" is given and what is the meaning of it in python

Hi M Shahriar! Great to have you in the course and thanks for reaching out! This is just the way the Python syntax works. The colon sign (:) indicates the beginning of the condition statement we indicate with the if operator. After the colon sign, we state the condition itself. Hope this helps. Best, Ivan

Hi when I write the statement and hit enter it does not give me an answer if 5==15/3: print("hello")

There might be few scenarios while u didn't get desired answer If 5==15/3(condition == true) : (tab or space)print("Hello") Just check where you're lacking in syntax or just examine the error u recieve(if any)
