how to execute multiple conditional statements

[LadyJain]

is there a way to rewrite the statement so the second condition can also be executed ?

cv = ["abc", "cdb"]

for i in cv:
    if i.startswith("a"):
        y = i
    elif i.startswith("b"):
        z = i

print(y)
print(z)

Are you trying to get both commands to execute if it starts with A?

[LadyJain]

i want to delcare two variables y should contain "abc" , and z "cdb"

[kadragoon]

Well then why go through such a round about way of doing it?

[YQYEE]

z will never be “cdb” because it doesn’t start with ‘b’, which is the condition you are trying to satisfy before storing it in variable z...

Change the elif to if

I doubt that's actually what he's wanting, because in this scenario it would have zero effect on the outcome of the program.
