# Example of using an else condition

# Variable declaration
temperature = 20

# Condition check
if temperature > 25:
    print("The weather is warm.")
else:
    print("The weather is cool or cold.")


# Another condition check
username = "admin"

if username == "admin":
    print("Logged in as administrator.")
else:
    print("Logged in as regular user.")

# The else Statement for When if Condition is False

The `else` statement is used with the `if` statement in conditional logic to define a code block that executes when the `if` condition is false.

```python title="Structure of if, else Statement"
if condition1:
    # Code to execute if condition1 is true
else:
    # Code to execute if all conditions are false
```

<br />

## How is the else Statement Used?

The `else` statement follows an `if` statement and does *not* include a condition.

Always add a colon `:` at the end of the `else` code line to signify the block of code that the else statement applies to.

```python title="Example of else Statement"
number = 3

# Check if number is divisible by 2
if number % 2 == 0:
    # Executes if number is divisible by 2
    print("It is even.")
else:
    # Executes if number is not divisible by 2
    print("It is odd.")
```

The else statement executes when the if condition is not true. In this example, when the number is not even, the else block is executed and 'It is odd.' is printed.

### Example of an else statement

Write code to determine if a number is even or odd. If the number is divisible by 2, print 'It is even.' Otherwise, print 'It is odd.' The given number is `4`. The expected output is `It is even.`
