When should I use if-else instead?

Can you explain when I should use if-else statements in my code?

If-else statements are used when you need to execute different code based on certain conditions. They help in decision-making.

Can you give me an example of how to use if-else?

Sure! For instance, if you want to check if a number is positive or negative, you can use: if (num > 0) { // positive } else { // negative }.

Are there any alternatives to if-else?

Yes, you can use switch statements for multiple conditions or ternary operators for simple conditions.

When is it better to use a switch statement instead?

Use a switch statement when you have multiple discrete values to check against a single variable, as it can be cleaner and more readable.
