I like the additional function approach others have mentioned. But if you want
a different approach, you could do this:
runExtraCode = True # set some Boolean
if cond1:
[some code]
if cond2:
[more code]
runExtraCode = False # both conditions met, no need to run the extra
code
if runExtraCode:
[do xxyy]
