Source Code:
# In this python program, user enters a number and checked if the number is positive or negative or zero num = float(input("Enter a number: ")) if num > 0: print("Positive number") elif num == 0: print("Zero") else: print("Negative number")
Here, we have used the if…elif…else statement. We can do the same thing using nested if statements as follows.
# This time use nested if to solve the problem num = float(input("Enter a number: ")) if num >= 0: if num == 0: print("Zero") else: print("Positive number") else: print("Negative number")
Output 1:
Enter a number: 2 Positive number
Output 2:
Enter a number: 0 Zero
Explanation
A number is positive if it is greater than zero. We check this in the expression of if. If it is False, the number will either be zero or negative. This is also tested in subsequent expression.
