No código não há muita diferença, o elif vai garantir que aquela condição seja verificada caso o if seja falso, diferente dos dois if que são 'fluxos' independentes. That's where elif comes in handy to prevent such thing from happening, which is the primary benefit of using it The other secondary good benefit of using elif instead of multiple if 's is to avoid confusion and better code readability. Elif seems to have originated with the c preprocessor, which used #elif long before python afaict I just started python programming, and i'm wondering about the elif keyword Other programming languages i've used before use else if
Does anyone have an idea why the python developers added the Elif is just a fancy way of expressing else If, multiple ifs execute multiple branches after testing, while the elifs are mutually exclusivly, execute acutally one branch after testing. Assuming the invalid syntax is a typo, the big benefit of elif vs having an else statement with a nested if is indentation Each time you go into a nested if you'll need to indent again, which will destroy readability.

How can we represent the elif logic in a list comprehension Up until now, i have only used if and else in list comprehension, as in if/else in a list comprehension.
