if/else

Branching with if-else is similar to other languages. The boolean condition needs to be surrounded by parentheses and each condition is followed by a block. if-else conditionals are expressions.

/mob/Login()
    var/n = 5

    if (n < 0)
        world << "[n] is negative"
    else if (n > 0)
        world << "[n] is positive"
    else
        world << "[n] is zero"

You can also construct if statements on a single line, as such:

if (n == 7) world.log << "Special number!"

Activity

Using the code in the first block, try adding a condition to check if the number is divisible by two.
