 `if` statements execute code only if their condition is true. The code to include in the `if` is denoted by a number of indented lines (see the concept section on [code blocks][block]). To indent a line, press the tab key or insert four spaces at the start. You can also include an `else` statement, which is executed if the condition is false. For example:

 A group of consecutive statements that are all indented by the same distance is called a block. `if` statements, as well as functions and loops, all refer to the block that follows them, which must be indented further than that statement. An example is in order. Let's expand the first `if` example:
