what is the use of this keyword in java

Answer 1

The if and if else statements are like "verification" statements. It can be used like such,

function main {
var x = prompt("Write a number") ;
// Gives a value for x
if (x < 3) {
alert("That number is less than 3!") ;
} else {
alert("That number is greater or equal to 3!") ;
}
}

This function can be taken logically because if x were to be less than 3, an alert will pop up saying that x is less than 3. Else, that number will be >= 3.

Answer 2

this is another way to view it could be simpler to understand

var myNum1 = 7;
var myNum2 = 10;
if (myNum1 > myNum2) {
alert("The number is not greater than 10");
}
else {
alert("the number is greater than 10");
}
