Else [crv] Looe | Java Conditions and If Statements You already know that Java supports the usual logical conditions from mathematics: + Less than: a < b + Less than or equal to: a <= b * Greater than: a > b * Greater than or equal to: a * Equal to a == b + Not Equal to: a I= b You can use these conditions to perform different actions for different decisions. Java has the following conditional statements: * Use if to specify a block of code to be executed, if a specified condition is true * Use else to specify a block of code to be executed, if the same condition is false * Use else if to specify a new condition to test, if the first condition is false + Use switch to specify many alternative blocks of code to be executed The if Statement Use the if statement to specify a block of Java code to be executed if a condition is true. nitps:wwwawschools.comfavaljava_conditions.asp 92arii2023 11:18 Java ll.

Uppercase letters (If or IF) will generate an error. In the example below, we test two values to find out if 20 is greater than 18. If the condition is true , print some text: Example if (28 > 18) { system.out.printIn("20 is greater than 18"); We can also test variables: Example int x 20; int y = 18; if (x>y) { system.out.println("x is greater than y"); + nitps:wwwawschools.comfavaljava_conditions.asp 2192arii2023 11:18 Java ll.

Because of this, we move on to the else condition and print to the screen "Good evening", If the time was less than 18, the program would print "Good day", The else if Statement Use the else if statement to specify a new condition if the first condition is false Syntax if (condition) { // block of code to be executed if condition1 is true } else if (condition2) { // block of code to be executed if the condition1 is false and condition2 i } else { // block of code to be executed if the condition1 is false and condition2 i } Example int time = 225 if (time < 10) { system.out.print1n("Good morning. system.out.printIn("Good day. } else { system.out.println("Good evening } hitpssvwwaschools.comfavaljava_condtions.asp 492arii2023 11:18 Java ll.

However, if the time was 14, our program would print "Good day."
