branching logic, do this or that based on some condition we used the if the, elif, and the else keywords. So in this case we're going to get a number

some random number and a guess from the user. You can imagine how that goes from the previous example we just did
0:31
and we're going to test, is the guess too low. If it is, we're going to print out a message hey the guess is too low.
0:36
If the guess is too high, we're going to say else, if, elif is the other test, is the guess too high then it's too high.
0:43
