Python dual condition in if statement

Question

Im trying to satisfy 2 conditions in the if statement with the word AND but it does not seem to be working. is there something wrong? Im basically trying to print the largest of e1,e2 and e3.

    if e1 > e2 AND e3:
          then print elapsed 1
    elif:
          e2>e3
          then print e2
    else:
          print e3

you need to say

if e1 > e2 and e1 > e3:
    print(e1)
elif e2 > e3:
    print(e2)
else:
    print(e3)

then it will work.

It's `and` and not `AND` – Sheldore Sep 02 '18 at 15:27
yes, this is correct its lowercase and i changed it. but the function is still not working. – analog_kid Sep 02 '18 at 15:31
@analog_kid: What's the error/message/output you are getting? What's your input? – Sheldore Sep 02 '18 at 15:33
