In the below example, else statement is used to print a message if the variable i is not divisible by 3.
i = 16 if i % 3 == 0: print(i," is divisible by 3.") else: print(i," is not divisible by 3.")
The output of the above code will be:
16 is not divisible by 3.
For adding more conditions, elif statement in used. The program first checks if condition. When found false, then it checks elif conditions. If found false, then else code block is executed.

Flow Diagram:

In the below example, else statement is used to print a message when all if and elif conditions result false.
i = 16 if i > 25: print(i," is greater than 25.") elif i <=25 and i >=10: print(i," lies between 10 and 25.") else: print(i," is less than 10.")
The output of the above code will be:
