JavaScript Conditional Statement (if...else)

JavaScript Conditional Statement (if...else)

Home > Tutorials > JavaScript > Getting Started


The if...else statement is to execute the code when the specified condition is true, and execute the code after else when the condition is false.

Javascript if else Syntax :

if(condition)
{ 
code to execute when the condition is true 
}
else 
{
code to execute when the condition is false 
}

Suppose we want to check a user's age, if the age is greater than or equal to 18 years old, the user is an adult, otherwise the user is not an adult. The code representation is as follows :

<script type="text/javascript">
   var myage = 18;
   if(myage>=18)   // myage>=18 is the judgment condition
    { document.write("You are an adult."); } 
   else   //Otherwise the age is less than 18
    { document.write("Under 18 years old, you Not an adult." ); }
 </script>

 

Task - Exercise 8

Assuming that Samuel Ben scored 80 points in an English test, use the if...else statement to check whether the test score is passed (60 points or more is a pass). Supply the codes on lines 8 and 12 to complete the function.
