in this tutorial series on creating a programming language:

he uses nested if statement,but can i use many if elif else statement instead.(especially the lexer)

If you could post the code in question here it would help a lot.

Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow because I am not at home now and my computer is at home.

At the point the elif checks tok to equal \ and then inside of that condition checks state to be 0 or 1
To not nest it could be replaced with two elif that check for tok and state at the same time.
