If statement conditions are based on true or false values. You can either use true or false variables directly or do a test.

a = True
if a == True:
    print "it is true"
if a:
    print "it is also true"

In python true is written with a capital letter (as is false). You can store the results of tests into variables if you wish.

a = 70
b = 60
c = a < b
if c:
   print "This"
else:
   print "or this?"
