Selection — making decisions1 / 9
if / elif / else
Selection means the program chooses which code to run based on a condition. Python uses `if`, `elif` (else if), and `else`:
```python
score = 72
if score >= 80:
print("Distinction")
elif score >= 60:
print("Merit")
elif score >= 40:
print("Pass")
else:
print("Fail")
```
Python uses **indentation** (4 spaces) to show which lines belong to a block — not curly braces.
