Conditionals allow you to execute different code based on conditions.
Basic syntax:
if (condition) {
// code to execute if condition is true
} else {
// code to execute if condition is false
}Example:
if (age > 16) {
console.log("You can drive!");
} else {
console.log("Sorry. Too young!");
}Comparison Operators:
<: less than>: greater than<=: less than or equal to>=: greater than or equal to===: equal to!==: NOT equal to
Remember: Conditions should evaluate to either truthy or falsy.
These allow you to check multiple conditions.
Logical Operators:
!: NOT||: OR&&: AND
Example with the AND operator:
if (sky === "clear" && temp === "warm") {
alert("Wonderful! Go enjoy the weather!");
} else {
alert("Hmm. Consider staying home today.");
}When seeking help or discussing your code:
- Provide context.
- State the coding language you're using.
- Share your code or screen.
- Explain the current behavior vs. expected behavior.
- Share any attempts you've made to solve the issue.
Example:
"On line 3 of my JS file, this function is returning undefined, but I want it to return the sum. Do you spot any errors?"
