List the conditional structures offered by a programming language. See Wikipedia: conditionals for descriptions.

Common conditional structures include if-then-else and switch.

Less common are arithmetic if, ternary operator and Hash-based conditionals.

Arithmetic if allows tight control over computed gotos, which optimizers have a hard time to figure out.



x = 42
if x < 10 then
    print "small"
else if x < 20 then
    print "small-ish"
else if x > 100 then
    print "large"
else
    print "just right"
end if
