Used when evaluating between just two choices
These are great for “either or” situations
You do not specify a condition for the “else” clause
// if..else statement
if (condition) {
code to run if condition is true
} else {
code to run if the above condition is NOT true
}
// run some other code
const yearOfBirth = 2001
if (yearOfBirth <= 2002) {
console.log('you will be old enough to vote in 2020')
} else {
console.log('Sorry, you will not be old enough to vote next year')
}
