IF Statement

                 In BASIC-256, the if statement is used for conditional execution of code based on whether a
                 condition evaluates to true or false.

                 The syntax of the IF statement is as follows:

                 if <condition> then
                    <statements>
                 end if

                 For Example:

                 INPUT "Enter a number: ", num
                 if num > 0 then
                    PRINT "The number is positive."
                 end if

                 Output:

                 Enter a number: 5
                 The number is positive.

                 Example 2:

                 INPUT "Enter a number: ", num
                 if num mod 2 = 0 then
                    PRINT "The number is even."
                 else

                    PRINT "The number is odd."
                 end if

                 Output:
                 Enter a number: 4

                 The number is even.

                      BASIC-256 is a very simple programming language used for calculations and business
                      applications.
                       Editor is identified as the area where we write our BASIC-256 programs.
                       A variable is used to store different kinds of information, such as text or a number, in the
                      computer’s memory.
                       The names we give to the variable are called identifiers.
                       Operators  are  special symbols  in BASIC-256 that  carry  out  arithmetic  or  logical
                      computation.
                       Comments are used to explain the program code.
