if (x >= 0):
  sqrtX=math.sqrt(x)
  print "the square root of x is ", x
elif (x >= -100):
  print "the square root cannot be calculated since x is negative!"
  print "note that x is between -10 and 0"
else:
  print "the square root cannot be calculated since x is negative!"
  print "note that x is less than -100"
