How to Create an IF/Else Statement in C#

Creating an if/else statement in C# is easy.  However, when you are a beginner it’s a bit difficult.  I learned this simple program while learning through Microsoft C# programming courses.  It’s short and clean and provides the basic concepts.

I admit when I first learned the if/else statements I got a little creative.  It’s almost like a game.  You could make it go on forever and ever if you want to.

I recommend the programming in C# classes at Microsoft.  It was a free course I found by accident online on their website. 

I hope this helps you.

Here's the source code:

Using IF/Else Statements

using System;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.Linq;

using System.Text;

using System.Threading.Tasks;

namespace IfElse

{

    class Program

    {

        static void Main(string[] args)

        {

            Console.WriteLine("Hey, pick a number from 1 through 3");

            string userValue = Console.ReadLine();

            string message = "";

            if (userValue == "1")

            {

                message = "You won a trip to Bahamas!";

            }

            else if (userValue == "2")

                message = "You win $200!";

            else if (userValue == "3")

                message = "You win dinner for two at Outback Steakhouse!";

           

            else

                message = "Sorry, we didn't understand.  You are a loser!";

            Console.WriteLine(message);

            Console.ReadLine();

        }

    }

}
