Conditionals

While programming there comes a point where you need to make decisions and carry out actions accordingly depending on different inputs. This can be achieved :

• “If” statements: where if a condition is true it is used to specify execution for a block of code.
• “Else” statements: where if the same condition is false it specifies the execution for a block of code.
• “Else if” statements: specifies a new test if the first condition is false.
• “Switch” statement: is another way to make decisions according to the conditions and carry out actions accordingly. It is generally used to replace else if statements when number of conditions are more.
• “Ternary” operator: is frequently used as a shortcut for the if else statement.

If Statement

The if statement only runs if the condition enclosed in parentheses () is truthy.
