Hi Matt,

You see a SyntaxError because your syntax is invalid Python.

I hope the below example demonstrates valid syntax that does what you want ...

$ python3
Python 3.9.2 (default, Feb 28 2021, 17:03:44)
[GCC 10.2.1 20210110] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> score = 42
>>> score >= 0 and score <= 1.0
False
>>> 0 <= score <= 1.0
False
>>>
