Branching with elif and else

and else
statements let you extend your code to handle cases not handled by your initial control statement. In this exercise you will sort security transactions based on their stock symbol. You might do this to better understand how some popular stocks are bought and sold. You are provided with the variable trn
which holds the transaction, and the empty lists appl
, tsla
, and amzn
to hold sorted transactions.
