title: If Else Statement
---

# If Else Statement 

The If-Else statement executes a block of code depending on whether your precondition is fullfilled or not.

## Example

```c#

if(boolean expression)
{
// execute this code block if expression evalutes to true
}
else
{
// always execute this code block when above if expression is false
}


int Price = 30;

If (Price == 30)
{
  Console.WriteLine("Price is equal to 30.");
}

Else 
{
  Console.WriteLine("Price is not equal to 30.");
}
```



Since we already declared our int Price to be 30, this will be the expected output.

## Output
```
Price is equal to 30.
```
## Shorten If Else Statement

We can use the ternary :? which is great for short if else statements.
For example:
```C#
int Price=30;
(Price==30)?Console.WriteLine("Price is Equal to 30."):Console.WriteLine("Price is Not Equal to 30.")
```
