unless else statement in perl
wwweditfigi.a.com
In Perl, the unless
statement can be used with an else
clause to execute code when the condition is true. The syntax for an unless else
statement is as follows:
unless (condition) { # code to be executed if condition is false } else { # code to be executed if condition is true }
Here is an example to demonstrate how unless else
statement works:
my $number = 10; unless ($number == 10) { print "The number is not 10.\n"; } else { print "The number is 10.\n"; }
In this example, since the condition $number == 10
is true, the output will be:
The number is 10.
If the value of $number
were not 10
, the output would have been:
The number is not 10.
Note that the unless else
statement is similar to the if else
statement, but the condition is inverted. The unless
statement is used when you want to execute code when a condition is false, and the if
statement is used when you want to execute code when a condition is true.
