## elseif

elseif — Defines another "if...then" condition when a "if...then" condition is false.

## Description

Defines another "if...then" condition when a "if...then" condition is false.

## Syntax

    elseif xa R xb then

where label is in the same instrument block and is not an expression, and where R is one of the Relational operators (<, =, <=, ==, !=) (and = for convenience, see also under Conditional Values).

## Performance

elseif is used inside of a block of code between the "if...then" and endif opcodes. When a "if...then" condition is false, it defines another "if...then" condition to be met. Any number of elseif statements are allowed.

## Examples

Here is an example of the elseif opcode. It uses the file elseif.csd.
