The `:else` keyword can be used in place of a logical expression in the last expression pair in `cond`. It signifies that it's corresponding expression should be evaluated if all other boolean expressions evaluate to false. It is the same as putting `true` as the last boolean expression.

## Special Forms and Evalution
You may have noticed that the rules of evaluating conditional expressions is a bit different from other expressions. Conditional expression are a part of a group of expressions called _special forms_. This means that they don't follow normal Clojure evaluation rules.

As you now know, a conditional expression only evaluates the subexpression that corresponds to the boolean result. This means that invalid code within a conditional expression won't be evaluated in some cases. Consider the two `if` expressions below. Although `(+ 1 "failure")` is an invalid expression, Clojure only raises an exception when the condition is `false`.

`my-if` is a function with normal evaluation rules, so all of it's subexpressions must be evaluted before it can be evaluted.

Clojure has plenty of useful macros like these for all kinds of tasks. Try having a look at <a href='https://clojuredocs.org/' target='_blank' rel='nofollow'>the Clojure documentation</a> and see if you can find any more!
