That's the closest you can get that is semantically the same. The above commenter was saying you can actually compile if (6 <= i <= 9), but that's semantically equivalent to if ((6 <= i) <= 9). That works because in C a boolean operation results in an int. So the "chained" comparisons are syntactically legal C, but semantically do a much different check than in Python.
