🔒 if statement giving me error? (new to python)

[bronze pier]

here is my code:

weight = input('Weight: ')
unit = input('(L)bs or (K)g: ')

if unit.upper() == "L":
    lbs = int(weight) * 0.45
    print(lbs)
else unit.upper() == "K":
    kg = int(weight) * 2.205
    print(kg)
 

here is the error i get in terminal

File "C:\Users\User\Downloads\projectfc\fctest.py", line 7
   else unit.upper() == "K":
        ^^^^
SyntaxError: expected ':'

why am i getting the error? why only on my "else" statment and not on my "if" statement?

• Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
• Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
• Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

elif, not else. An else has no condition.
