elif: More Than Two Paths 🥇

Sometimes there are more than two possibilities. elif (short for "else if") lets you chain as many checks as you want:

grade = 85

if grade >= 90:
    print("Grade: A ⭐")
elif grade >= 80:
    print("Grade: B")
elif grade >= 70:
    print("Grade: C")
else:
    print("Let's practice some more!")

Here's the important part: Python reads the chain top to bottom, stops at the first check that's True, runs that one, and ignores everything below it. Only one message ever prints.

You can have as many elifs as you like. The else at the end catches everything that didn't match.
