Is there a way to better write the code to find the number between two numbers? It's not reading the 2nd or the 3rd elif statements

BMI_num = 21

if BMI_num <= 18.5:
    BMI_title = 'Underweight'
    print ('Results . . . ')
    print ('Your BMI is: ', BMI_num , '--' , BMI_title) 


elif 18.5 > BMI_num  >= 24.9:
    BMI_title = 'Normal'
    print ('Results . . . ')
    print ('Your BMI is: ', BMI_num , '--' , BMI_title) 


elif 25 >= BMI_num >= 29.9:
    BMI_title = 'Overweight'
    print ('Results . . . ')
    print ('Your BMI is: ', BMI_num , '--' , BMI_title) 


elif BMI_num < 30:
    BMI_title = 'Obese'
    print ('Results . . . ')
    print ('Your BMI is: ', BMI_num , '--' , BMI_title)

>Solution :

You need to replace > with <. Comparisons such as 18.5 > BMI_num >= 24.9 will always be False as no number can simultaneously be less than 18.5 and more than 24.9.

You also may want to consider that when BMI_num is 24.95 or 29.95 no code will be run.

Also you can reduce some code duplication by printing after.

if BMI_num <= 18.5:
    BMI_title = 'Underweight'
elif 18.5 < BMI_num  < 25:
    BMI_title = 'Normal'
elif 25 <= BMI_num <= 29.9:
    BMI_title = 'Overweight'
elif BMI_num < 30:
    BMI_title = 'Obese'

print ('Results . . . ')
print (f'Your BMI is: {BMI_num} -- {BMI_title}')
