PHP Conditional Statements

PHP Conditional Statements

Very often when you write code, you want to perform different actions for different decisions. You can use conditional statements in your code to do this.

In PHP we have the following conditional statements:

• if statement - executes some code only if a specified condition is true
• if...else statement - executes some code if a condition is true and another code if the condition is false
• if...elseif....else statement - specifies a new condition to test, if the first condition is false
• switch statement - selects one of many blocks of code to be executed
