4. Equality tests

int(elapsed_time()) == 5 is an equality test.

If the values on both sides of the equality operator (==) are the same then the test result is True. Otherwise the test result is False.

Note the use of a double equal sign, not just a single equal sign!

In our example, the equality test will become True after 5 seconds of elapsed time and turn False again after 6 seconds of elapsed time. This will result in our robot opening its eyes for one second only.
