in the following code if my_list[midpoint] == item: found = True else: if my_list[midpoint] < item: first = midpoint + 1 else: last = midpoint - 1 why use two if? cant I just use if ,elif , else?

Hey, Thank you for your question! Yes, you could definitely implement it in the way you propose, namely: if my_list[midpoint] == item: found = True elif my_list[midpoint] < item: first = midpoint + 1 else: last = midpoint - 1 Kind regards, 365 Hristina
