3.4 Else If Statements

Else If Statements: Used when you have multiple conditions that need to be checked sequentially.

Flow of Execution: Each condition is evaluated in the order written. The first true condition’s code runs, and the rest are skipped.

Structure:

• Start with a single if statement.
• Follow with as many else if statements as needed.
• Optionally end with one else to handle any remaining cases. Key Concept: The order of conditions matters. More specific conditions should come before broader ones to ensure accurate results.

1. If I was 19 what would it print out?
2. If I was 13 what would it print out?
3. Create your if statement with one else if condition.

If I was 19 it would print out “Current age: 19” “You can register to vote.” “You are old enough for a liscence to drive.”

If I was 13 it would print out “Current age: 13”

int myAge = 12;
if(myAge == 13)
{
    System.out.println("You are 13");
}
else if(myAge == 12)
{
    System.out.println("average 12 year old be like");
}
else
{
    System.out.println("image being not on this list");
}

average 12 year old be like
