Answer to Question #239764 in Python for prosper2000

Question

Deeply nested conditionals can become difficult to read. Describe strategy for avoiding nested conditionals. Give your own example of a nested conditional that can be modified to become a single conditional and show the equipment single conditional.

Answer 1

One strategy for avoiding nested condition is by using functional statements that layer in different functions. Also another one is to use operators 'and' 'or' and 'not' to give the conditional statements greater flexibility which allows fewer nested conditionals.

#  nested conditiona
Number = 4; 
if ( Number > 0 ): 
    if ( Number%2==0):
        print("Positive even number ")


# single conditional
Number = 4; 
if ( Number > 0 and  Number%2==0 ):
    print("Positive even number")
