The conditional statements is a built-in construct capable of comparing a value and executing a set of commands based on the result of that condition. The if statement is used in conjunction with the /else statement and the /elseif statement to jump to certain blocks of code depending on the result of the conditional statement that was executed. The if statements supports the operators
Synopsis[edit]
if (<condition>) <statement> if (<condition>) { <statements> }
Switches[edit]
Parameters[edit]
- <condition> - a conditional expression to be executed
Example[edit]
Below is a simple example of checking for at least five arguments before proceeding.
alias example { if ($0 < 5) { echo -atc info * /example: You must provide at least 5 arguments! | halt } ; do something useful here echo -a works! }
Executing "/example a b c d" will result in:
* /example: You must provide at least 5 arguments!
While, executing "/example a b c d f" will result in:
works!
