if-else statements

 In Java, the if-else statement is used to make decisions in a program. It allows the program to execute different code depending on whether a certain condition is true or false. The basic structure of an if-else statement is as follows: 

The condition is a boolean expression that evaluates to either true or false. If the condition is true, the code inside the first set of curly braces will be executed, otherwise the code inside the second set of curly braces will be executed.

Here's an example of an if-else statement in Java:

In this example, the program checks the value of the variable age against the value 18. If the value of age is greater than or equal to 18, the program will execute the first block of code and print "You are an adult." to the console. Otherwise, the program will execute the second block of code and print "You are not an adult." to the console.

You can also use the if statement without the else part, it will execute the code inside the if statement only if the condition is true:

You can also chain multiple if-else statements together to create more complex decision-making logic by using else if

As a new programmer, it's important to practice using if-else statements to become comfortable with making decisions in your code and to learn how to use them to create more complex logic.
