Let us start a thread on ' if ' statement in Java.

[Sinipull]

Why would we want to start that thread? There isn't much to discuss.

[arunjib]

For a beginer we can start it. [excuse me if i do anything wrong.]
1. if(condition)
<statement>;

2. if(condition)
<statement>;
if(condition)
<statement>;

3. if(condition)
<statement1>;
<statement2>;

and we can progress step by step.

Would it be helpful for a beginer? Please reply.

You are doing it wrong, you can't add two statements after the if-clause without using curly brackets

if(condition){
    statement1;
    statement2;
} else {
    statement3;
}

this would be the right syntax.

Please mention sl number. Are you talking about number 3?

Yes, they have mentioned two statements after the if clause without curly bracket, so you can assume it is number three of which does not work.
