Day 1: Using = instead of == in conditions

 

Day 1: Using = instead of == in conditions

---

❌ The Mistake

x = 10

if x = 10:
    print("Correct")

❌ Why this fails?
Because = is assignment, not comparison.

Python throws a SyntaxError.

✅ The Correct Way

x = 10

if x == 10:
    print("Correct")

✔ == compares values
✔ = assigns values

🧠 Simple Rule to Remember

• = → Assign

• == → Compare
