If Statements - Constantin - Apr-14-2018
Hello Python Users,
I have started coding a few days ago and I want to write a code where it asks what age you are(for example 15) and it gives you the name you assigned the number 15 to.
The problem is that I have no clue how to start... would anyone be kind enough to help me? ;)
Thank you

Hello,
My English level is low, and maybe I don't understand well, but if you want to read from keyboard, the basic form can be:
print("How old are you?")
age = input()Bye

Yes thank you,
this is good but I was thinking of
input = ("How old are you?") | Then you write (for example) 12 and a Name comes out. I need to assign the numbers to the name. I just don't know how I do these two steps.

if age == 1:
print("Bob")
elif age == 2:
print("Putin")Alternatively, you could google "Python if statement" for an explanation of how if statements work.

Constantin - I suggest you start with a tutorial where you will learn fast.

Hello,
maybe, an other option is to use dictionaries:
name_age = {1: "Bab", 15: "Beb", 30: "Bib"}
age_in = input()
name = name_age[int(age_in)]
print(name)The dictionary should contain all the names and ages you want to contemplateIt depends of what you want to do.

Sounds like homework.
