Kotlin If Else If Statement

Chapter: Kotlin Last Updated: 22-09-2018 06:15:28 UTC

Program:

            /* ............... START ............... */
                
fun main(args: Array<String>) {

    var number = 2

    val result = if (number > 0)
        "positive number"
    else if (number < 0)
        "negative number"
    else
        "zero"

    println("Result is :  $result")

    number = 0

    val result1 = if (number > 0)
        "positive number"
    else if (number < 0)
        "negative number"
    else
        "zero"

    println("Result is :  $result1")
}
                /* ............... END ............... */
        

Output

Result is :  positive number
Result is :  zero

Notes:

• If else if statment in kotlin makes a ladder of conditions, if one statement finds true it will exit from the if else if ladder.
• In the above program you can see the if else if ladder with three conditions. If number > 0 it will take positive number as the return value, else if it will take the negative value.
• If all condition is not satisfied it will take last else part.
