2.1 - Conditional statements

You can use conditional statements to get a boolean output (either true or false).

Python supports the usual mathematical conditions:

In the REPL, try different things and see what happens.

>>> "a" == "a"
True
>>> 4 == 6
False
>>> 4 != 6
True
>>> 8 < 9
True
>>> 6 > 1
True
>>> 6 > 7
False
>>> 6 <= 6
True
>>> 6 <= 7
True
>>> 6 <= 5
False
>>> 8 > 4
True
>>> 8 >= 1
True
>>> 8 >= 9
False
>>> 8 > "text" # You cannot do number operations on a string!
