a)

Explanation of Solution

Simple decision:

  • In python, decisions can be implemented using “if” statements.
  • Python handles the following type of decisions,
    • Simple decision
    • Two-way decision
    • Multi-way decision
  • Simple decisions can be implemented by a simple “if” statement.
  • Example:

    #Initialize the variable

    a=1

    #Check the condition using “if” statement

    if (

b)

Explanation of Solution

Two-way decision:

  • In python, decisions can be implemented using “if” statements.
  • Python handles the following type of decisions,
    • Simple decision
    • Two-way decision
    • Multi-way decision
  • Two-way decisions can be implemented by “if-else” statement.
  • Example:

#Initialize the variables

c)

Explanation of Solution

Multi-way decision:

  • In python, decisions can be implemented using “if” statements.
  • Python handles the following type of decisions,
    • Simple decision
    • Two-way decision
    • Multi-way decision
  • Multi-way decision can be implemented by “if-elif-else”, and nested “if-else” statements.
  • Example:

#Initialize the variables

a=5

b=3

c=6

#Check the condition using “if” statement

if(a<b && a<c):

  #Print “a” value

  print(a)

#Check the condition using “elif” statement

elif(b<c):
