This post will show how to create a very simple if statement using Python and compare values.
If Statement
The whole idea behind an if statement is to compare values and build a logic that action tasks based on the results of the statement. Creating an if statement with Python is not complicated as you will see in the following code.
Code
Let’s have a look at the following code. We have two values and an if statement that compare them. If the result is true something will print.
value1 = 10
value2 = 10
if value1 == value2:
print("Value1 is the same as value2 ")Python Comparison Operators
The following table shows the comparison operators that are available in Python.
| Operators | Details |
| == | Equal |
| != | Not equal |
| >= | Greater or equal to |
| <= | Less or equal to |
| > | Greater than |
| < | Less than |
