PHP if else statement

The IF Else statement provides a default block of code that executes if the condition returned is FALSE. else cannot be used without an if statement,as it doesn't take a conditional itself. So, else and if have to always be together in your code.

The IF Else statement Remember to close out the code block from the if conditional when you've used braces to start your block of code. Similar to the if block, the else block should also use curly braces to begin and end the code.
