Conditional Statements

To compare variables against values, the condition statement is used provided with an operator, the structure of a condition statement follows: condition <operator> <variable> <value>; for example:

Condition statements cannot be nested within other condition statements.

variable aValue = 1;
condition equal_to aValue 0;
    varlog Condition fulfilled;
end_if;

The else_condition keyword can be used to invoke the alternate process if the condition is not met, i.e.:

variable aValue = 1;
condition equal_to aValue 0;
    varlog Condition fulfilled;
else_condition;
    varlog Condition unfulfilled;
end_if;
//! Result: Condition unfullfilled

Variables can be used as value to compare against the preceding variable in a condition i.e.:

variable this = 1;
variable that = 0;
condition not_equal this {$that};
    varlog Condition fulfilled;
else_condition;
    varlog Condition unfulfilled;
end_if;
//! Result: Condition fulfilled

Regex can be used to test variables in a condition statement using the find_in operator (all regex modifiers are supported):

variable testString = Hello World;
condition find_in testString /^Hello.+/g;
    varlog Condition fulfilled;
else_condition;
    varlog Condition unfulfilled;
end_if;
//! Result: Condition fulfilled
