∟Conditional "elseif" Statement

This section describes what is a conditional 'elseif' statement in H language.

A conditional "elseif" statement is a statement that follows an "if" or another "elseif" statement with a given condition and a sub-statement.

A conditional "elseif" statement will be executed only when all conditions were failed in previous "if" and "elseif" statements.

When a conditional "elseif" statement executed, the given condition is evaluated first, if the condition is satisfied, the given sub-statement is then executed.

A conditional "elseif" statement has the following syntax:

$if ...;
$elseif ...;
$elseif condition, sub-statement;

Examples of conditional "elseif" statements are:

$if x > 0, write("x is a positive number.");
$elseif x < 0, write("x is a negative number.");

$if hour < 12, write("Good morning!");
$elseif hour > 18, write("Good evening!");
