Nested ‘if’ statement
When an ‘if’ statement has
another ‘if’ statement as one of its possible processing branches, these ‘if’
statements are said to be nested.
Syntax:
if(boolean_expression 1)
{
//Executes when the Boolean
expression 1 is true
if(Boolean_expression 2)
{
// executes when the Boolean
expression 2 is true
}
}
Example:
Sample C program for nested if
statement
#include<stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
int i; //the integer value is declared as ‘i’.
printf(“enter either 1(for
Birthday) or 2(for Wedding Day)”); //Text
displayed asking user to enter either 1 or 2
scanf(“%d”,&i); //the integer i is scanned
if(i==1) //if ‘i' is equal to 1 then the statement, we wish you a happy
birthday is displayed.
printf(“we wish you a happy
birthday”);
else
{
if(i==2) //if i is equal to 2 then the next statement will be displayed.
printf(“we wish you a happy
wedding day”);
else
printf(“Have a nice day anyway”);
}
return 0;
}
OUTPUT
Enter either 1 or 2
3
Have a nice day anyway
