If
If, Control(F2):1 is a command which will determine whether or not the next line of code is executed.
Syntax: If
If condition Where condition is an expression that resolves to be either true or false
If condition is true, then the code in the next line is executed. Otherwise that code is skipped.
Ex: If
5→x
If x=5
Disp "True"
True
If...Then blocks
If...Then...EndIf
If...Then...EndIf, Control(F2):2:1 is a group of commands which will determine whether or not a block of code is executed.
Syntax: If...Then...EndIf
If condition Then
code-block
EndIf Where condition is an expression that resolves to be either true or false
If condition is true, then the code in code-block is executed. Otherwise that code is skipped
Where code-block has one or more lines of code
Ex: If...Then...EndIf
5→x
If x=5 Then
7→y
Disp "Y is",y
EndIf
Y is
7
If...Then...Else...EndIf
If...Then...Else...EndIf, Control(F2):2:2 is a group of commands which will determine which of two blocks of code is executed.
Syntax: If...Then...Else...EndIf
If condition Then
code-block 1
Else
code-block 2
EndIf Where condition is an expression that resolves to be either true or false
If condition is true, then the code in code-block 1 is executed. Otherwise it skips to code-block 2
Where code-block 1 and code-block 2 each have one or more lines of code
Ex: If...Then...Else...EndIf
8→x
If x=5 Then
Disp "X is five"
Else
Disp "X is not five"
EndIf
X is not five
ElseIf...Then
ElseIf...Then, Control(F2):2:3 is a command in which could be used to add more than two code blocks in If...Then...EndIf code.
Syntax: ElseIf...Then
If condition 1 Then
code-block 1
ElseIf condition 2 Then
code-block 2
EndIf Where condition 1 and condition 2 are expressions that resolves to be either true or false
If condition n is true, then the code in the respective code-block n is executed. Otherwise it skips to the next ElseIf...Then statement, to a code-block between Else and EndIf, or straight to EndIf depending on how everything is setup.
Where code-block 1 and code-block 2 each have one or more lines of code
Ex: ElseIf...Then
8→x
If x=5 Then
Disp "X is five"
ElseIf x=8 Then
Disp "X is eight"
EndIf
X is eight
Ex: ElseIf...Then with Else
8→x
If x=5 Then
Disp "X is five"
ElseIf x=8 Then
Disp "X is eight"
Else
Disp "X is neither 5 nor 8"
EndIf
X is eight
