JavaScript If Else condition evaluates the expression, If expression is true, execute the true block otherwise execute else block.
JavaScript Conditional Statements,
- If Statement
- If Else Statement
- If Else If Statement
JavaScript Example,
- If statement with Logical Operators
Note:
Curly brackets are used to define the block of the code. It's optional when write single statement.
And when writing multiple statements used curly braces{}for identifying group statements.
If Statement
If statement evaluates the expression, and if the condition becomes true execute the if block otherwise skip and execute the next statements.
Syntax
if ( condition ) {
// Do stuff if condition is true
}if ( true ){
// Do stuff if condition is true
}
Example
var a = 5;
if (a) { // variable a = 5 value, so expression of 'a' return true
document.write("Value of a:" + a);
}If Else Statement
If...Else statement checking two different possibility. If the condition becomes true, execute block of code otherwise executes else block.
Syntax
if ( condition ) {
// Do stuff if is true
} else {
// Do stuff if is not true
}
Example
var a = 5, b= 10;
if (a > b) {
document.write("a is bigger than b");
} else {
document.write("a is smaller than b");
}If Else IF Statement
JavaScript else if statement evaluates the if condition and execute a block of code if expression become true, otherwise check the next else if condition and so on.
If specified if else condition not satisfied then execute the else block of code.
Syntax
if ( condition1 ) {
// Do stuff if condition is true
} else if ( Condition2 ) {
// Do stuff if Condition2 is true
} else if ( Condition3 ) {
// Do stuff if Condition3 is true
} else {
// Do stuff if not above condition is not true
}
Example
var a = 10, b= 10;
if (a > b) {
document.write("a is bigger than b");
} else if (a == b) {
document.write("a is equal to b");
} else {
document.write("a is smaller than b");
}If statement with Logical Operators
Logical AND (&&) - If condition evaluates and return true whether all condition satisfied, otherwise return false.
Example
var a = 10, b = 5;
if (a && b && a > b) // true && true && true
document.write("a is bigger than b");
else
document.write("a is smaller than b");
Logical OR (||) - If condition evaluates and return true at least one condition true, otherwise return false.
Example
var a, b;
if (a || b) // false || false
document.write("a and b both are defined.");
else
document.write("a and b undefined.");
Logical NOT (!) - If condition evaluates the inverse of the given value result true become false, and false become true.
Example
var a;
if (!a) // true
document.write("a is undefined.");
