Thread: If statements

Does this count as a single if statement or two?

if (condition){
   statement
}
else if (condition){
   statement
}
else{
   statement
}

Any help appreciated

Depends what you mean by single if statement.

Some people consider a "single if statement" to be an if statement with only one statement, where you wouldnt need the brackets to run that statement:

if(condition)
     statement;
else
     statement;

Others could take "single if statement" as a check where there is no else condition:

if(condition)
{
     statement;
}
//continue with program

Other still could consider a "single if statement" as a situtation with no nested if statements, which is what you have above. And still others could consider a "single if statement" as a situation with no else if statements. I dont think the term "single if statement" has a definitive meaning.
