The IF statement is a critical element in every programming language. It allows for branching based on specific conditions that must be met.

if (certain_condition == True) { action }

Here are some code examples demonstrating IF statements in PHP:

1. Even Numbers

2. Odd Numbers

The code above will display “Even Number” or “Odd Number” depending on the value of the variable. For instance, if number = 30, it is an even number; if number = 31, it is an odd number. The comparison operator == is used to evaluate statements that result in either True or False.

When run in a browser, it looks like this:

• Odd Number Result:

• Even Number Result:

The simple IF statement used above provides only one resolution; if the condition is not met, the action block is skipped. For scenarios with two possible outcomes, you can use the IF-ELSE structure:

if (certain_condition == True) {
    // Action if condition is True
} else {
    // Action if condition is False
}
