Description

The IF statement either runs or skips a sequence of one or more statements, depending on the value of a BOOLEAN expression. For more information regarding Oracle IF, check here.

IF boolean_expression THEN 
    statement 
    [ statement ]...
[ 
ELSIF boolean_expression THEN 
    statement 
    [ statement ]... ]...
   [ 
ELSE 
statement [ statement ]... ] END IF ;

IF ( <condition> ) THEN
    <statement>;
    [ <statement>; ... ]
[
ELSEIF ( <condition> ) THEN
    <statement>;
    [ <statement>; ... ]
]
[
ELSE
    <statement>;
    [ <statement>; ... ]
]
END IF;
