Beginner python question

Question

having trouble with this question:
Given the age of a person as an input, output their age group.
Here are the age groups you need to handle:
Child: 0 to 11
Teen: 12 to 17
Adult: 18 to 64

code that I wrote:

age = int(input())
if age>=0 and age<=11:
print("Child")
elif age>=12 and age<=17:
print("Teen")
elif age>=18 and age<=64:
print("Adult")

the error i keep getting:

File "/usercode/file0.py", line 4
elif age>=12 and age<=17:
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I've tried it using else instead of elif still coming with a similar error
any help would be much appreciated. Thank you!!

Answer 1

Please see the way of writing the if-elif statement

It's the syntax

if condition:
#your code
elif condition:
#your code

At first you have to write "if" then you can proceed with "elif", I strongly prefer you to search about "nested if statements" in Python for more information.

Answer 2

Your code has some indentation errors, learn about indentation, rest of the code is right👍

Here is your corrected code:

//

age = int(input())
if age>=0 and age<=11:
print("Child")
elif age>=12 and age<=17:
print("Teen")
elif age>=18 and age<=64:
print("Adult")
