Thread: If_Else Problem

/
I'm a newbie and a senor citizen and to keep my mind alert I have decided to learn C++. However the following may be very simple for most of you, at least I thought it should be simple.

The following piece of code will not compile. Any hints would be greatly appreciated.

Code:

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
    int A, B;
	
    A = 6;
    B = 7;

    If( A == B )
    {
             cout << "A is equal to B";
	
     else
             cout << "A is NOT equal to B";
     }	
     return 0;
}

You need cin.get(); above return 0; to keep the console from closing once it has displayed what it has to display. Otherwise you could run in from the command prompt.

Code:

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
    int A, B;
	
    A = 6;
    B = 7;

    if( A == B )    // lower case 'if'
    {
             cout << "A is equal to B";
    }
     else
    {
             cout << "A is NOT equal to B";
    }	
     return 0;
}

I've amended your spelling of 'if'. C++ keywords are case-sensitive. I've aso added a couple of braces for clarity.
