→IF-ELIF-ELSE STATEMENT
[[Image:if-elif-else.png|thumb|right|300px|Example of how an '''if-elif-else''' statement works.<br>(Image licensed under [https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ cc])]]
The '''elif''' statement can be used to perform additional conditional tests of the previous test condition tests '''FALSE'''. This statement is used to make your logic control-flow statement to be more adaptable.<br><br>''How it Works:''<br>If the test condition returns a '''TRUE''' value, then the Linux Commands between<br>'''then''' and '''else''' statements are executed.<br><br>If the test returns a '''FALSE''' value, then '''a <u>new </u> condition is testedagain''',<br>and action is taken if the result is '''TRUE''', then the Linux Commands between<br>'''then''' and '''else''' statements are executed. '''Additional elif statements''' can be used if additional conditional testing is required . Eventually, an action will be taken<br>when the final test condition is '''FALSE'''.<br><br>
