JavaScript if Statement (Live Playground)

In this tutorial, we will explore the if statement, and learn how to use it in our code.

if Statement​

The if statement is a conditional statement which used to make decisions in your code based on specific conditions.

The if statement is used to execute a block of code only if a specified condition is true.

Example:

const a = 10;

if (a > 5) {
  console.log('a is greater than 5');
}

In the example above, the output is 'a is greater than 5' because the condition a > 5 is true.
