Sometimes there is a requirement to have multiple if statement embedded inside of each other.
The general form of this statement is −
if(condition) {
statement #1
statement #2
...
} else if(condition) {
statement #3
statement #4
} else {
statement #5
statement #6
}
Following is an example of a nested if/else statements −
class Example {
static void main(String[] args) {
// Initializing a local variable
int a = 12
//Check for the boolean condition
if (a>100) {
//If the condition is true print the following statement
println("The value is less than 100");
} else
// Check if the value of a is greater than 5
if (a>5) {
//If the condition is true print the following statement
println("The value is greater than 5 and greater than 100");
} else {
//If the condition is false print the following statement
println("The value of a is less than 5");
}
}
}
In the above example, we are first initializing a variable to a value of 12. In the first if statements, we are seeing if the value of a is greater than 100. If not, then we enter our second for loop to see if the value of a is greater than 5 or less than 5. The output of the above code would be −
The value is greater than 5 and greater than 100
