if-else Statement
In C, the if-else statement is used to make decisions in your program. It lets your code choose between two paths: one if a condition is true, and another if it's false.
Syntax:
if (condition) {
// code runs if condition is true
} else {
// code runs if condition is false
}
Example:
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
int number = 10;
if (number % 2 == 0) {
printf("Even number\n");
} else {
printf("Odd number\n");
}
return 0;
}
As you can see, insted using multiple if statements the if-else syntax makes the code more readable.
