--- id: 56533eb9ac21ba0edf2244dc title: Chaining If Else Statements challengeType: 1 videoUrl: 'https://scrimba.com/c/caeJgsw' forumTopicId: 16772 --- ## Description <section id='description'> <code>if/else</code> statements can be chained together for complex logic. Here is <dfn>pseudocode</dfn> of multiple chained <code>if</code> / <code>else if</code> statements: ```js if (condition1) { statement1 } else if (condition2) { statement2 } else if (condition3) { statement3 . . . } else { statementN } ``` </section> ## Instructions <section id='instructions'> Write chained <code>if</code>/<code>else if</code> statements to fulfill the following conditions: <code>num < 5</code> - return "Tiny"<br><code>num < 10</code> - return "Small"<br><code>num < 15</code> - return "Medium"<br><code>num < 20</code> - return "Large"<br><code>num >= 20</code> - return "Huge" </section> ## Tests <section id='tests'> ```yml tests: - text: You should have at least four <code>else</code> statements testString: assert(code.match(/else/g).length > 3); - text: You should have at least four <code>if</code> statements testString: assert(code.match(/if/g).length > 3); - text: You should have at least one <code>return</code> statement testString: assert(code.match(/return/g).length >= 1); - text: <code>testSize(0)</code> should return "Tiny" testString: assert(testSize(0) === "Tiny"); - text: <code>testSize(4)</code> should return "Tiny" testString: assert(testSize(4) === "Tiny"); - text: <code>testSize(5)</code> should return "Small" testString: assert(testSize(5) === "Small"); - text: <code>testSize(8)</code> should return "Small" testString: assert(testSize(8) === "Small"); - text: <code>testSize(10)</code> should return "Medium" testString: assert(testSize(10) === "Medium"); - text: <code>testSize(14)</code> should return "Medium" testString: assert(testSize(14) === "Medium"); - text: <code>testSize(15)</code> should return "Large" testString: assert(testSize(15) === "Large"); - text: <code>testSize(17)</code> should return "Large" testString: assert(testSize(17) === "Large"); - text: <code>testSize(20)</code> should return "Huge" testString: assert(testSize(20) === "Huge"); - text: <code>testSize(25)</code> should return "Huge" testString: assert(testSize(25) === "Huge"); ``` </section> ## Challenge Seed <section id='challengeSeed'> <div id='js-seed'> ```js function testSize(num) { // Only change code below this line return "Change Me"; // Only change code above this line } // Change this value to test testSize(7); ``` </div> </section> ## Solution <section id='solution'> ```js function testSize(num) { if (num < 5) { return "Tiny"; } else if (num < 10) { return "Small"; } else if (num < 15) { return "Medium"; } else if (num < 20) { return "Large"; } else { return "Huge"; } } ``` </section>
