Welcome.
We are seeing 3 extra dots before the continuation lines,
probably because you mistakenly posted in html. Please post in
text mode, so we all see the same thing, and so it matches what
you pasted in.
As for your query, what matters is the number of spaces you type
before each line. Don't bother trying to make the columns line
up visually at the interactive prompt. Same number f spaces for
the if as for the elif, in this case zero.
