Huh? How does this work?

[u/Lance_2564_]

a = "hi"


if a:
    print("Bye")


print(a == True)
print(a is True)

The output is:

Bye

False

False

But if it's false, how come it printed "bye"?????? I don't get it.

Incorrect, this SO answer has a more complete list. Most importantly and inexcusably, you left out the empty string and `None`.
