Snippet
If-Else: Making Decisions
If-else statements allow your program to make decisions based on conditions. The condition is evaluated as true or false. If true, the first block executes. Otherwise, else-if and else blocks are checked in sequence.

#include <iostream>int main() {int score = 85;if (score >= 90) {std::cout << "Excellent!" << std::endl;} else if (score >= 70) {std::cout << "Good job!" << std::endl;} else {std::cout << "Keep practicing!" << std::endl;}return 0;}
Breakdown
1
if (score >= 90)
First condition checked - if score is 90 or higher
2
else if (score >= 70)
Second condition checked only if first was false
3
else
Executes only if all previous conditions were false
