... The Boolean object is an object wrapper for a boolean value. ... JavaScript 1.3: added toSource method . ... If value is omitted or is 0, -0, null, false, NaN , undefined, or the empty string ( "" ), the object has an initial value of false. All other values, including any object or the string "false" , create an object with an initial value of true. ... For Boolean objects and values, the built-in toString method returns the string "true" or "false" depending on the value of the boolean object. ...

... The if statement . ... The switch statement . ... if ( expression ) statement 1 else statement 2 ...or: . ... expression 1 ? ... The C switch is similar to Pascal's case statement and it allows multiple choice of a selection of items at one level of a conditional where it is a far neater way of writing multiple if statements: . switch ( expression ) { case item 1 : statement 1 ; break; case item 2 : statement 2 ; break; case item n : statement n ; break; default: statement ; break; } . ...

As conditional or control statements you have IF in many variants (but essentially not changed from Fortran 77), DO (with some new variants) and the completely new statement CASE . The DO- loop should now be ended with the statement END DO and we no longer need any statement number. In addition, we can use the statement EXIT to jump out of the DO -loop and CYCLE in order to go to the next iteration of the present DO -loop. ... all negative numbers WRITE (*,*) 'Negative number' CASE (0) ! ...

The if statement uses the exit status of the given command and conditionally executes the statements following. The general syntax is: if test then commands (if condition is true) else commands (if condition is false) fi . ... Make sure that you end each if construct with a fi statement. if statements may be nested: if ... then ... else if ..... fi fi . The elif statement can be used as shorthand for an else if statement. For example: if ... then ... elif ..... fi . Example . ...

. FOR <loop control> <statement>... [ XFOR <statement>... ] CFOR The rules for writing < loop control > are identical to those for the FORTRAN DO-loop. The actions follow the FORTRAN DO-loop control actions. At any point in the FOR-loop an XFOR statement may be inserted. This statement transfers control to the statement following CFOR. FOR I=1,80 LINE(I)=' ' CFOR .
