What is the correct syntax for 'else if'?

python python-3.x

In python "else if" is spelled "elif".
Also, you need a colon after the elif and the else.

Simple answer to a simple question. I had the same problem, when I first started (in the last couple of weeks).

So your code should read:

def function(a):    if a == '1':        print('1a')    elif a == '2':        print('2a')    else:        print('3a')function(input('input:'))

python python-3.x

Do you mean elif?

python python-3.x

def function(a):    if a == '1':        print ('1a')    elif a == '2':        print ('2a')    else:        print ('3a')
