The IF statement in ProBuilder language is a fundamental control structure used to execute code conditionally. It allows the programmer to specify blocks of code that should only be executed if a certain condition is true.
IF (condition) THEN
// code to execute if condition is true
ENDIF
a = 10
b = 20
// Conditional statement to determine the value of "c"
IF (a < b) THEN
c = a + b
ENDIF
RETURN c
In this example, the IF statement checks if the value of a is less than b. Since a is 10 and b is 20, the condition (a < b) is true, so the code inside the IF block is executed, setting c to the sum of a and b. The value of c, which is 30, is then returned.
Understanding the IF statement is crucial for making decisions in your code based on the values of variables or the results of expressions, allowing for dynamic and responsive programming in ProBuilder.
