if <i>trueOrFalse</i> then

[else if <i>trueOrFalse</i> then

[else

end if
```

The multiple-statement<code> if </code>structure tests the specified condition and executes <b>one or more</b> statements if the condition is true. You use the optional<code> else if </code>or<code> else </code>form to run alternative blocks of code in case the  condition following<code> if </code>is false.<br>
<br>
Because each part of a complex<code> if </code>structure may contain more than one statement, you must have an<code> end if </code>statement at the end of the structure.<br>
