# --description--

An `else` statement can be conditional with an `else if` statement. At the end of the `if` statement, add an `else if` statement to check if `monsterHealth` is less than or equal to zero. Inside the `else if` block, call the `defeatMonster()` function.

Here is an example of an `if` statement with `else if` and `else`:

```js
if (num > 15) {
  return "Bigger than 15";
} else if (num < 5) {
  return "Smaller than 5";
} else {
  return "Between 5 and 15";
}
```

# --hints--

See description above for instructions.

```js
assert(
  attack
    .toString()
    .match(
      /^\s*if\s*\(\s*health\s*\<\=\s*0\s*\)\s*\{\s*lose\(\s*\);?\s*\}\s*else if\s*\(\s*monsterHealth\s*\<\=\s*0\s*\)\s*\{\s*defeatMonster\(\s*\)\;?\s*\}/m
    )
);
```
