## Description
<section id='description'> 
Si tiene varias condiciones que deben abordarse, puede encadenar <code>if</code> sentencias junto con <code>else if</code> sent. 
<blockquote>if (num > 15) {<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;return "Bigger than 15";<br>} else if (num < 5) {<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;return "Smaller than 5";<br>} else {<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;return "Between 5 and 15";<br>}</blockquote> 
</section>

## Instructions
<section id='instructions'> 
Convertir la lógica para usar <code>else if</code> instrucciones. 
</section>

## Tests
<section id='tests'>

```yml
tests:
  - text: Debes tener al menos dos declaraciones <code>else</code>
    testString: 'assert(code.match(/else/g).length > 1, "You should have at least two <code>else</code> statements");'
  - text: Debes tener al menos dos declaraciones <code>if</code>
    testString: 'assert(code.match(/if/g).length > 1, "You should have at least two <code>if</code> statements");'
  - text: Usted debe tener que cerrar y abrir llaves para cada condición
    testString: 'assert(code.match(/if\s*\((.+)\)\s*\{[\s\S]+\}\s*else if\s*\((.+)\)\s*\{[\s\S]+\}\s*else\s*\{[\s\S]+\s*\}/), "You should have closing and opening curly braces for each condition in your if else statement");'
  - text: <code>testElseIf(0)</code> debería devolver &quot;Más pequeño que 5&quot;
    testString: 'assert(testElseIf(0) === "Smaller than 5", "<code>testElseIf(0)</code> should return "Smaller than 5"");'
  - text: <code>testElseIf(5)</code> debe devolver &quot;Entre 5 y 10&quot;
    testString: 'assert(testElseIf(5) === "Between 5 and 10", "<code>testElseIf(5)</code> should return "Between 5 and 10"");'
  - text: <code>testElseIf(7)</code> debe devolver &quot;Entre 5 y 10&quot;
    testString: 'assert(testElseIf(7) === "Between 5 and 10", "<code>testElseIf(7)</code> should return "Between 5 and 10"");'
  - text: <code>testElseIf(10)</code> debe devolver &quot;Entre 5 y 10&quot;
    testString: 'assert(testElseIf(10) === "Between 5 and 10", "<code>testElseIf(10)</code> should return "Between 5 and 10"");'
  - text: <code>testElseIf(12)</code> debe devolver &quot;Más de 10&quot;
    testString: 'assert(testElseIf(12) === "Greater than 10", "<code>testElseIf(12)</code> should return "Greater than 10"");'

<div id='js-seed'>

```js
function testElseIf(val) {
  if (val > 10) {
    return "Greater than 10";
  }

  if (val < 5) {
    return "Smaller than 5";
  }

  return "Between 5 and 10";
}

// Change this value to test
testElseIf(7);

```

</div>

## Solution
<section id='solution'>


```js
function testElseIf(val) {
  if(val > 10) {
    return "Greater than 10";
  } else if(val < 5) {
    return "Smaller than 5";
  } else {
    return "Between 5 and 10";
  }
}
```
