3.3 If Else Statements

Purpose of Else Statements

Else statements: Handles what happens when the if condition is false. Structure of If-Else:

• If statement with a condition.
• Else statement without a condition.
• Both parts have code blocks surrounded by {}.

don’t forget the brackets

if (x > 10) {

        console.log("x is greater than 10");
        console.log("This code when the condition is true");
    } else {
    
        console.log("x is 10 or less");
        console.log("This code runs when the condition is false");
    }
    Without brackets:
    
    if (x > 10)
    
        console.log("x is greater than 10");
        console.log("this code will always run");

1. Based on this code, if you were younger than 16 what would it print out? It would print that you are not old enough for a license yet.
2. Write your own if else statement

int grade=11;
if(grade>=11){
    System.out.println("You are an upper classmen");

}
else{
    System.out.println("You are an under classmen");
}

You are an upper classmen
