Comparisons evaluate to True or False.
Read each comparison as a yes/no question.
Using assignment in condition by mistake.

This lesson is about Comparison Operators. You are in the Foundations part of the course.
Main idea:
Comparisons evaluate to True or False.
How to learn it: type a very small program first. Run it. Change one line and run again.
Tip:
Read each comparison as a yes/no question.
Common mistake:
Using assignment in condition by mistake.
Your challenge:
Check if a user is eligible to vote by age.
Scroll down to the challenge lab. Run your code there. When the output meets the task and the checks pass, press the green button to finish this topic.
Example code
Copy this example if it helps. Change it so it matches Comparison Operators.
# Topic: Comparison Operators
def main():
sample = "edit me"
# TODO: apply Comparison Operators concept here
result = sample
print("Result:", result)
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
Challenge
Check if a user is eligible to vote by age.
Before you can finish: your output should include at least 16 characters; at least 1 non-empty line(s); no crash traceback—fix errors until the program runs cleanly.
Use Run. Read the output. Change your code until the task is done.
