the c# way of doing if statements

if.cs

if ((order.status != :created) and !(User.Current.IsInRole("Admin") 
{
    ViewBag.Alert = "This order cannot be changed since work has begun;
    Response.Redirect(string.Format("/Orders/", order.Id);
}

if.rb

unless current_user.has_role?(:admin) or @order.status == :created
   redirect_to @order, :alert => "This order cannot be changed since work has begun"
end
