= The elsif Statement
.Syntax
[source,unlang]
----
if (condition-1) {
[ statements-1 ]
}
elsif (condition-2) {
[ statements-2 ]
}
else {
[ statements-3 ]
}
----
An `elsif` statement is used to evaluate a subsequent
xref:condition/index.adoc[condition] after a preceding xref:if.adoc[if] statement
evaluates to `false`. In the example above, when _condition-1_
evaluates to false, then _statements-1_ are skipped and _condition-2_
is checked. When _condition-2_ evaluates true, then _statements-2_
are executed. When _condition-2_ evaluates false, then
_statements-2_ are skipped and _statements-3_ are executed.
As with xref:if.adoc[if], an `elsif` clause does not need to be followed by
an xref:else.adoc[else] statement. However, any xref:else.adoc[else] statement
must be the last statement in an `elsif` chain. An arbitrary number of
`elsif` statements can be chained together to create a series of
conditional checks and statements.
.Example
[source,unlang]
----
if (&User-Name == "bob") {
reject
}
elsif (&User-Name == "doug") {
ok
}
