if/else statement
Simple if statement
In this example we shall show you how to use a simple if
statement. The if-else
statement is the most basic of all the control flow statements. It tells your program to execute a certain section of code only if a particular expression evaluates to true. To use a simple if
statement one should perform the following steps:
- Create a new boolean variable set to false.
- Use the boolean inside the if expression and execute some code if the expression inside the if statement is true,
as described in the code snippet below.
package com.javacodegeeks.snippets.basics; public class SimpleIfStatementExample { public static void main(String[] args) { boolean b = true; if (b) System.out.println("Variable value is true"); } }
Output:
Variable value is true
This was an example of how to use a simple if
statement in Java.
