If else-if ladder

The if else ladder statement in C programming language is used to test set of conditions in sequence. An if condition is tested only when all previous if conditions in if-else ladder is false. If any of the conditional expression evaluates to true, then it will execute the corresponding code block and exits whole if-else ladder. 

if(condition)
{
//body to execute
}


else if(condition)
{
//body to execute
}


else if(condition)
{
//body to execute
}

else if(condition)
{
//body to execute
}

......

else
{
// body to execute
}

Example:

Void main()
{
int num;
printf("Enter a no.:");
scanf("%d",&num);

if(num<=100)
{
printf("No is smaller than or equal to 100");

}
else if(num<=200)
{
printf("No is smaller than or equal to 200");
}
else if(num<=300){
printf("No is smaller than or equal to 300");
}
else if(num<=400){
printf("No is  smaller than or equal to 400");
}
else if(num<=500)
{
printf("No is  smaller than or equal to 500");
}
else
{
 printf("No is greater than 500")
 }

getch();
 

}

Input:    Enter a no.:  600
Output : No is greater than 500
