How would you say does not equal?
Like
if hi == hi: print "hi" elif hi (does not equal) bye: print "no hi"
Is there something equivalent to ==
that means “not equal”?

Answer
Use !=
. See comparison operators. For comparing object identities, you can use the keyword is
and its negation is not
.
e.g.
1 == 1 # -> True 1 != 1 # -> False [] is [] #-> False (distinct objects) a = b = []; a is b # -> True (same object)
