advance for if, else if

Question

Can we create the if, else if statement like:

if ( x = 1, 3, 5, 7,8) {

Answer 1

Well you can't really assign multiple values such as. You can make it a double equal sign which is making a condition of testing whether it is equal.

Well, then can we use anything like if ( x = 1 or 3 or 5 or 7...) ?

Answer 2

Actually, yes! This requires use of the OR operator, which will return true if at least one argument in a set is true. Here's what it would look like in your example:

for (int i = 1; i <= 10; i++) {
	if (i == 1 | i == 3 | i == 5 | i == 7 | i == 8) {
		System.out.print(i + "");
	}
}
// --> 1 3 5 7 8

Answer 3

you could also just keep doing if statements and make it do the same thing

if(x=1){
}
if (x=3){
}
and so on
