Conditional / selection statements:
- help us to execute set of statements based on the result of a given conditional expression
if,
if else,

switch case
if else statement:
- executes true part; if the conditional expression inside the parenthesis evaluates to true, else it executes the false part.
syntax:
if(conditional expression)
{
statements; // true part
}
else
{
statements; // false part
}
OR
if(conditional expression):
statements; // true part
else:
statements; // false part
endif;
Note: if the true part gets executed then the false part is not executed, vice versa.
Example code:
$a=10;
if($a==10)
{
echo "a is equal to 10";
}
else
{
echo "a is not equal to 10";
}

if($a==10):
echo "a is equal to 10";
