### In python comments start from hash sign
print('Verify if you are eligible for voting...')
age=int(input('Please enter your age'))

### condition always start with intended block in python
### We use colon in if else statement in python
if (age>18):
	print('You are eligible to vote')
else:
	print('You are not eligible to vote');
