The if-then-else inline command is shown below:
returnvalue = (condition) ? (truePart) : (falsePart);
-----------
According to the C standard, this command does exist in the C coding language in the same way as it exists in C++ and comparable languages.

Only one type:
if (<condition>) <statement1>
[else <statement2>]
of course statements can be single statements, blocks, empty statements, etc.
Example:
if (i==1);
else for (j=1; j<=i; ++j) printf ("i==%d j==%d\n", i, j);
I'd say there's 4 kinds of if statements:
if
if-then-else-if
nested if
switch can be considered an if statement too.
C has two types of conditional statements: if and switch.
The "if" statement computes an expression and, if the expression is nonzero, executes a block of code. It can optionally be followed by an "else" statement that executes a block of code if the "if" statement is false. The block of code can have another "if" statement, up to as many "if"s as desired.
The "switch" statement works differently, comparing one value with multiple values.
See the related links below for more information on conditional statements in C.
Firstly, if else is not a structure, "multiway" (whatever that means) or otherwise. It is a control statement.
Secondly, there are only two forms of control statement using if: either with or without the else clause.
The syntax is as follows:
if (expression)
{
statement; // control passes here when expression evaluates true
}
[else
{
statement; // control passes here when expression evaluates false
}]
All expressions must evaluate true or false, or to any boolean equivalent (where zero is false and non-zero is true).
Each statement can either be a simple or a compound statement. All compound statements must be surrounded by braces {}, as shown above, but are optional for simple statements.
Either statement can also be another if statement (nested if). The following example uses assertions to prove the logic:
if (exp1)
{
if (exp2)
{
assert (exp1 && exp2);
}
else
{
assert (exp1 && !exp2);
}
}
else
{
if (exp3)
{
assert (!exp1 && exp3);
}
else
{
assert (!exp1 && !exp3);
}
}
Note that since all if statements are themselves just simple statements, curly braces are optional unless there is any ambiguity regarding which else belongs to which if, otherwise curly braces are only required around compound statements. The above example can therefore be simplified as follows:
if (exp1)
if (exp2)
assert (exp1 && exp2);
else
assert (exp1 && !exp2);
else
if (exp3)
assert (!exp1 && exp3);
else
assert (!exp1 && !exp3);
Note that an else immediately followed by an if is typically placed on the same line to become an else if, however the else and the if are still separate statements:
if (exp1)
if (exp2)
assert (exp1 && exp2);
else
assert (exp1 && !exp2);
else if (exp3) // else if statement
assert (!exp1 && exp3);
else
assert (!exp1 && !exp3);
The following is the same example using compound statements (curly braces are required):
if (exp1)
if (exp2)
{
assert (exp1);
assert (exp2);
}
else
{
assert (exp1);
assert (!exp2);
}
else if (exp3)
assert (!exp1 && exp3);
else
assert (!exp1 && !exp3);
Where you place curly braces around compounds is a matter of personal preference. The following is a fairly common form:
if (exp1)
if (exp2) {
assert (exp1);
assert (exp2);
} else {
assert (exp1);
assert (!exp2);
}
else if (exp3)
assert (!exp1 && exp3);
else
assert (!exp1 && !exp3);
When the logic is not clear, use braces and/or indentation as appropriate.
The 'if' statement in C++ allows the programmer to specify that a section of code should be run if the condition to the 'if' statement is true, skipped otherwise.
if(condition)
{
std::cout << "This prints if the value of "condition" is true." << std::endl;
}
std::cout << "This prints independent of the truth value of "condition"." << std::endl;
(Pretend there are backslashes before the inner quotes in above print statements. Answers.com has stripped them out.)
There is no else-if-then statement in any language. C++ uses the if/else if/else statement, where the first if is mandatory (introducing the statement) but the remaining clauses are optional. If present, the else clause must be the final clause, with one or more else if's in between, if required.
Example:
if( x )
{
// ... statements to execute when x is non-zero
}
else
{
// ... statements to execute when x is zero
}
if( x==1 )
{
// ... statements to execute when x is 1
}
else if( y==1 )
{
// ... statements to execute when x is not 1 but y is 1
}
else
{
// ... statements to execute when neither x nor y are 1
}
There is no "endif" keyword in C++.
if(expression)
statement
[else
statement]
Either statement may be another if expression (nested if):
if(expression)
statement
else if(expression)
statement
else
statement
Please re-word your question.
The if/else construct allows your program to make decisions. Here is an example:
if (number1 < number2)
{
//do some stuff here...
}
else
{
//do some more stuff here...
}
When the program comes upon an if statement, it evaluates the expression to see if it is true. If it is, it executes the instructions inside the if statement. If the expression is found to be false, it executes the optional else statement.
The difference between if-else and conditional operator is that IF-ELSE statement is easy to understand.

No. .NET programming is Microsoft-specific, similar to Java in some respects, but it is non-portable. C++ is a general purpose and cross-platform programming language.
C++ is not a command oriented language, it is a multi-paradigm language because it employs functional and object-oriented approaches to programming.
