If-Else Statements: Making Decisions
If-else statements allow your program to make decisions based on conditions. If the condition in the if-part is true, that block executes. Otherwise, the else block runs.

#include <iostream>using namespace std;int main() {int age = 18;if (age >= 18) {cout << "You are an adult." << endl;} else {cout << "You are a minor." << endl;}return 0;}
Breakdown
1
if (age >= 18)
Checks if age is greater than or equal to 18
2
cout << "You are an adult." << endl;
This line runs only when the condition is true
3
else { ... }
The else block runs when the if condition is false
