Delphi If Statement

Notice in the more complete example that the semicolon for the begin..end block after end is not included. That tells the compiler something else is coming (the statement is not finished). Also note the semicolon is missing right before the final "else" statement.

Note: The following example uses floating point literals. In Delphi, to specify a fractional floating point literal between 1 and -1, you preceed the decimal with a 0; otherwise, you will get a compiler error (i.e. .1 + .1 does not work).

Syntax Example:
if (0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1) = 0.3 then
  ShowMessage('Correct')
else
  ShowMessage('Not correct');
 
//Complete example:
if x = true then
begin
  ShowMessage('x is true');
end
Else If y = 'Mike' Then 
  ShowMessage('hello mike')
Else 
  ShowMessage('last option');

Here are some more simpler examples:

//Simple 1-line example:
IfX = True Then
	'>>>do something.
 
//Simple with block of code:
IfX = True Then
begin
	'>>>do something 1.
	'>>>do something 2.
end;
