+% if let
+
+<small>There is a new edition of the book and this is an old link.</small>
+
+> The `if let` syntax lets you combine `if` and `let` into a less verbose way to handle values that match one pattern and ignore the rest.
+
+```rust
+let some_u8_value = Some(3u8);
+if let Some(3) = some_u8_value {
+ println!("three");
+}
+```

+* [In the current edition: Ch 6.03 — Concise Control Flow with `if let`][2]
+* <small>[In the first edition: Ch 3.21 — if let][1]</small>
