Doubt about conditionals in Python.

[Carmazum]

Python only interprets the first statement it detects as True.

To be precise, it works top down until (and if) it reach a if/elif that is evaluated as True or eventually (if present) else. That may have effect, because some code may be executed even if the condition as whole is False. In other words, code may be executed while evaluating the condition, even if the result is False and the respective code block under that condition is not executed.
Simplified example

def spam():
    print('Inside spam') # just to show that function has been called
    return False


if spam():
    print('spam is True')
else:
    print('spam is False')

output

Output:
Inside spam
spam is False

Oh, so, Python does interpret the code it finds even if it is False. The detail is that, if it is False, it will not execute the code inside the conditional.

Did I understand correctly? Sorry if I didn't, I haven't programmed anything for a while.

Also, sorry for the late reply! (>_<)
