C# `if...else` statement

One if statement can be followed by an optional else statement else statement is executed when the Boolean expression is false.

Grammar

In C # if...else syntax of the statement:

if(boolean_expression)
{
   /* The statement to be executed if the Boolean expression is true */
}
else
{
  /* The statement to be executed if the Boolean expression is false */
}

If the Boolean expression is true , then execute if the code within the block. If the Boolean expression is false ,then execute else code within the block.

Example

using System;
namespace DecisionMaking
{

    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            /* Definition of Local Variables */
            int a = 100;
            /* Check Boolean conditions */
            if (a < 20)
            {
                /* If the condition is true, output the following statement */
                Console.WriteLine("A less than 20");
            }
            else
            {
                /* If the condition is false, output the following statement */
                Console.WriteLine("A greater than 20");
            }
            Console.WriteLine("The value of a is {0}", a);
            Console.ReadLine();
        }
    }
}

When the above code is compiled and executed, it produces the following results:

A greater than 20
The value of a is 100

`if...else if...else` statement

One if statement can be followed by an optional else if...else statement, which can be used to test a variety of conditions

When using if...else if...else statement, the following points need to be noted:

One if can be followed by zero or one. else must be in any one else if after that.
One if can be followed by zero or more else if must be in the else before.
Once someone else if, the match is successful, and the rest else if or else will not be tested.

Grammar

In C # if...else if...else syntax of the statement:

if(boolean_expression 1)
{
   /* Execute when Boolean expression 1 is true */
}
else if( boolean_expression 2)
{
   /* Execute when Boolean expression 2 is true */
}
else if( boolean_expression 3)
{
   /* Execute when Boolean expression 3 is true */
}
else
{
   /* Execute when none of the above conditions are true */
}

Example

using System;
namespace DecisionMaking
{

    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            /* Definition of Local Variables */
            int a = 100;
            /* Check Boolean conditions */
            if (a == 10)
            {
                /* If the if condition is true, output the following statement */
                Console.WriteLine("The value of a is 10");
            }
            else if (a == 20)
            {
                /* If the else if condition is true, output the following statement */
                Console.WriteLine("The value of a is 20");
            }
            else if (a == 30)
            {
                /* If the else if condition is true, output the following statement */
                Console.WriteLine("The value of a is 30");
            }
            else
            {
                /* If none of the above conditions are true, output the following statement */
                Console.WriteLine("No matching values");
            }
            Console.WriteLine("The exact value of a is {0}", a);
            Console.ReadLine();
        }
    }
}

When the above code is compiled and executed, it produces the following results:

No matching values
The accurate value of a is 100
