An else clause can be added to an if statement to<br />
make an if-else statement<br />
A condition often uses one of Java's equality<br />
operators or relational operators, which all return<br />
boolean results:<br />
if ( condition )<br />
statement1;<br />
else<br />
statement2;<br />
== equal to<br />
!= not equal to<br />
< less than<br />
> greater than<br />
= greater than or equal to<br />
If the condition is true, statement1 is executed; if<br />
the condition is false, statement2 is executed<br />
One or the other will be executed, but not both<br />
Note the difference between the equality operator<br />
(==) and the assignment operator (=)<br />
