P. 107
It contains a conditional expression using which data is compared. A decision is made based on
the result of the comparison. If the result of the expression is true, the statements within the if
block is executed and if the result of the expression is false, the statements within the if block is
not executed. There is no limitation on the number
of statements that can appear under the if block.
Hence, you may add as many statements in the if Condition: True
block as you need. The syntax of the if statement if(age>=18) Allowed to vote
is as follows:
if (conditional expression): False
statement(s)
Program 1: To check your eligibility to vote
In the above example, the conditional statement will always evaluate the result as True because
the value of x is greater than 18. Hence, the output of the above code would be ‘You are eligible
to cast your vote’.
Subject: If statement execution criteria
A statement or statements indented within an if statement are executed
only if the condition is true, otherwise the control skips the if statement and
moves on to the statements outside the if block.
THE if-else STATEMENT
The if-else statement is used to evaluate whether
a given statement is true or false. If the given Condition: True
condition is true, the if block is executed. If the Equal
given condition is false, the else block is executed. if(a==b)
The syntax of the if statement is as follows:
if (conditional expression): False
statement(s) Not Equal
else:
statement(s)
