# report message based on day of week

#      Tuesday: school day
#    Wednesday: school day
#     Thursday: school day
#       Friday: end of school week
#     Saturday: weekend day

# get day of interest
reply = input( 'Enter day of week: ' )

# analyze and report on day

# to evaluate multiple expressions, we can use if/elif/else structures
# if ( logical expression ):
# elif ( logical expression 2 ):
#   you can have multiple elif statements
# else: # optional

# python will go down each if/elif statements ONE AT A TIME and will evaluate THE FIRST TRUE STATEMENT
# and then do the action within that True if/elif/else statement
#   it does not matter if any of the statements after the first truth is True or not!! Just do the first thing
#   that's true

# strategy 1:

# is it Monday, is it Tuesday, ....
if ( day == 'Sunday' ):
    print( 'weekend day' )

elif ( day == 'Monday' ):
    print( 'start of school week' )

elif ( day == 'Tuesday' ):
    print( 'school day' )

elif ( day == 'Wednesday' ):
    print( 'school day' )

elif ( day == 'Thursday' ):
    print( 'school day' )

elif ( day == 'Friday' ):
    print( 'end of school week' )

elif ( day == 'Saturday' ):
    print( 'weekend day' )

else:
    # if day is not any of the English day of the week
    print( 'bad input' )

    # we could have included Saturday in the else statement as well
    # (no separate elif for checking whether day == 'Saturday')
    # but we may get bad inputs
    # which shouldn't print 'weekend day' when we get a bad input

# strategy 2 --> shorter

if ( ( day == 'Sunday' ) or ( day == 'Saturday' ) ):
    # if the day is a Sunday OR if day is a Saturday
    # only need one of these things need to be True: either day is a Sunday, or day is a Saturday
    # then this statement is True --> we want the same action to be done for either
    print( 'weekend day' )

    # CANNOT DO day == 'Sunday' or 'Saturday' --> must do the statements SEPARATELY
    # still legal but not what you want
    # == is more important than or --> gets evaluated first before the or with the string 'Saturday'

elif ( day == 'Monday' ):
    print( 'start of school week' )

elif ( day == 'Friday' ):
    print( 'end of school week' )

# other combo: 'Tuesday', 'Wednesday', 'Thursday'
elif ( day in [ 'Tuesday', 'Wednesday', 'Thursday' ] ):
    # check if day is in the list which has the strings: 'Tuesday', 'Wednesday', 'Thursday'
    # if day is a string in this list, then print 'school day' --> same action for any of these strings
    print( 'school day' )

else:
    print( 'bad input' )

# if you have multiple if statements
# python will check all if statements and if they're true, then do that action;
# each if statement does not get ignore and each will get evaluated

# Ex:
# if ( something is true 1 ):
#   # do something

# if ( something is true 2 ):
#   # do something

# if you want to do both # do something if BOTH conditions are met, the above pseudo code will do that

# for if/elif structures
# python checks one statement at a time, if an if/elif/else statement is True --> do the action inside it
# and IGNORES all OTHER elif/else statements

# Ex:
# if ( something is true 1 ):
#   # do something 1

# elif ( something is true 2 ):
#   # do something 2

# if something is true 1 evaluates to True --> then only do something 1
# WILL NOT do something 2
# doesn't matter if something is true 2 evaluates to True or False
