I'm translating a program in Python that has this IF Then chain

In other words, as long as 'xi' is less than 'limit' keep going
down the chain, and when 'xi' isn't less than 'limit' jump to end of
chain a continue.
Is this the equivalence in Python?
IF x1 < limit:
--- do a ---
elif x2 < limit:
--- do b ---

Of course not. After "do a", it would stop.
You need to use
if x1 < limit:
do a
if x2 < limit:
do b
...
Alternatively, and depending on the nature of "do X", you can do
for x, todo in ((x1, do_a), (x2, do_b), ...):
if x < limit:
todo()
else:
break
This implies though that the "dos" are pure functions without (variable)
arguments.
