3.3 if-else Statements

An if-else statement extends a basic if statement by providing an alternative path when the condition is false. The if part checks a boolean condition, and if it’s true, runs its block of code; otherwise, the else part runs its block of code.

int score = 50;
if (score >= 60) {
    System.out.println("Pass");
} else {
    // This block executes when score is less than 60
    System.out.println("Fail");
}

Fail

* Notice that the first conditional statement evaluated to false, so the program resorted to executing the code in the else block.
