If statements

Question

its easy because its just a choice between if and else and what happens when either becomes greater or less than the variable indicated in it..

Answer 1

It can actually be a choice between an infinite number of 'if's and 'else's. E.g.

if (x == 1)
{
// do something
}
else
if (x > 1)
{
// do something else
}
else
if (x < 1)
{
// do other things
}

etc. As you can see, no matter how the value of x changes, it will not exceed the boundaries of the conditional statements because I have defined conditional statements which covers the entire scope of integers. It is up to one to decide how to define their conditions.

Answer 2

I understand now, if the if statements are false,then it goes straight to the else statement.
