You forgot that you are comparing to an integer!
Your list type is a string
You are comparing an int

so it will never be true!
Change your code to:


if threeNum[0] == "5":
  threeNum[0] = "small"
  print(threeNum)
elif threeNum[0] == "5":
  threeNum[0] = "big"
  print(threeNum)

or:


if int(threeNum[0]) == 5:
  threeNum[0] = "small"
  print(threeNum)
elif int(threeNum[0]) == 5:
  threeNum[0] = "big"
  print(threeNum)
