Line 486:
So what is going on here? When Python encounters the <code>if</code> keyword, it <i>evaluates</i> the <i>expression</i> following the keyword and before the colon. If that expression is <b>True</b>, Python executes the code in the indented code block under the <code>if</code> line. If that expression is <b>False</b>, Python skips over the code block.
In this case, because <code>True</code> is truthy, Python executes the code block under the if statement, and we see "I'm True!" printed to the screen.
