The partner to the if statement is the else statement. An if/else statement says to Ruby: “If this expression is true, run this code block; otherwise, run the code after the else statement.” Here’s an example:

if 1 > 2
  print "I won't get printed because one is less than two."
else
  print "That means I'll get printed!"
end

Instructions

1.

Try it yourself in the editor! Use any expression you like in your if/else statement, but make sure both branches print a string of your choice to the console.
