Python Python Basics (2015) Logic in Python Conditional Value

how to complete conditional value section?

the question says:

I'm going to create a variable named age. I need you to make an if condition that sets admitted to True if age is 13 or more.

how do i do this?

conditions.py
admitted = None

1 Answer

The answer is in the question if you break it down a little.

I'm going to create a variable named age. I need you to make an if condition that sets admitted to True if age is 13 or more.

So right away you can see there are going to be two variables; one named age and one named admitted.

Next it says that

if age >= 13:
    admitted = True

It is just worded backwards in the question. Make sense? It's more important to understand why the code works than to pass to the next step.
