In a comprehensive program, the computer must make decisions based on given
267+
conditions. Of course, the computer cannot do this alone; you must instruct it
268+
exactly. The most common conditional statement is the `IF` statement, often
269+
extended with `IF/ELSE`.

int i = 10;

In a single IF statement, the programmer wants to test,

expect or verify something, such as this program.

The programmer is expecting that `i` variable
288-
has the value 10, and variable `i` has the same
289-
value, so the statement
290-
`Expected value is the same as variable i, so the result is TRUE.`
291-

292-
not the same as the value of the variable,

In a single `IF` statement, the programmer wants to test, expect, or verify
287+
something. In this program, the programmer expects that the variable `i` has
288+
the value 10. Since variable `i` does have the value 10, the statement
289+
`Expected value is the same as variable i, so the result is TRUE.` will be
290+
printed. If the expected value is not the same as the value of the variable,
293291
the statement will not be printed.

you can do a lot of things just like correct an error,

go to a certain part of a program, etc. That's the power

Not only can the statement in the `ELSE` branch be printed, but you can also
