Python What does this code signify in relation to boolean logic?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the use of boolean logic in Python, particularly in the context of conditional statements using if, elif, and else. A code snippet is provided that evaluates the variable my_age, demonstrating how boolean expressions determine the program's output based on age. The article referenced explains that boolean values and comparisons are essential for controlling program behavior, but participants express dissatisfaction with the explanation, feeling it focuses more on conditional statements than on clarifying boolean logic itself. There is a consensus that finding clear and effective explanations of boolean logic in Python can be challenging.

Code:
my_age = 10

if my_age >= 100:
  print("One hundred years old! Very impressive.")
elif my_age <= 3:
  print("Awwww. Just a baby.")
else:
  print("Ah - a very fine age indeed")

Article says-:
Booleans are used in your code to make it behave differently based on current conditions within your program. You can use boolean values and comparisons in conjunction with the if, elif, and else keyoards as one means to achieve this.

It means that the keywords if and elif are followed by expressions (my_age >= 100 and my_age <= 3) that evaluate to boolean values (when my_age is 10 they both evaluate to False).

This is IMHO not a very good explanation of boolean logic in Python, it is more about conditional statements.
 
exactly i felt the same it is so tough to figure out good explanations tbh
 
Thread 'Star maps using Blender'
Blender just recently dropped a new version, 4.5(with 5.0 on the horizon), and within it was a new feature for which I immediately thought of a use for. The new feature was a .csv importer for Geometry nodes. Geometry nodes are a method of modelling that uses a node tree to create 3D models which offers more flexibility than straight modeling does. The .csv importer node allows you to bring in a .csv file and use the data in it to control aspects of your model. So for example, if you...
I tried a web search "the loss of programming ", and found an article saying that all aspects of writing, developing, and testing software programs will one day all be handled through artificial intelligence. One must wonder then, who is responsible. WHO is responsible for any problems, bugs, deficiencies, or whatever malfunctions which the programs make their users endure? Things may work wrong however the "wrong" happens. AI needs to fix the problems for the users. Any way to...
