不知道为什么它拒绝我的 else 声明

Question

drinks = 5
if drinks <= 2:
  print("Keep going buddy")
elif drinks == 3:
  print("I believe you've had enough, sir")
  else:
    print("stop")

This was the code I was trying to run, and it keeps giving me a syntax error with the "else" and I don't know why.

Answer 1

Your syntax is wrong. Remove the space before the else:

Answer 2

The syntax of your code is labeled as incorrect because an else statement and clause cannot exist without an if statement and clause preceding it. Since you have an else statement alone inside an elif clause, an error is thrown.

Likely this is just an issue with your indentation, which you need to be very careful about, since Python emphasizes whitespace. Here is the code I believe you meant to type:

drinks = 5
if drinks <= 2:
    print("Keep going buddy")
elif drinks == 3:
    print("I believe you've had enough, sir")
else:
    print("stop")
