title: If Else Statement
---
# If...Else Statement
The If...Else statement executes different blocks of code depending on the truthfulness of the specified condition.
## Syntax
```C#
if (boolean expression)
{
// execute this code block if expression evalutes to true
}
else
{
// always execute this code block when above if expression is false
}
```
## Example
```C#
int Price = 30;
if (Price == 30)
{
Console.WriteLine("Price is equal to 30.");
}
else
{
Console.WriteLine("Price is not equal to 30.");
}
```
Since we already declared our integer `Price` to be 30, this will be the expected output.
### Output
```
Price is equal to 30.
```
## Shortened If...Else Statement
We can use the ternary `:?` which is great for short if...else statements.
For example:
```C#
int Price = 30;
(Price == 30) ? Console.WriteLine("Price is Equal to 30.") : Console.WriteLine("Price is Not Equal to 30.")
```
