Conditional Statements 101

A conditional statement is a sentence that makes decisions based on conditions. But what are conditions, you ask? Why, they're like little monsters that eat your logic for breakfast!

Here's a simple example:

if (it's sunny) { take a nap } else { drink more coffee }

See? Easy peasy! But wait, there's more! What about nested conditionals? Ah, those are like little Russian dolls of logic, each one hiding another, more terrifying condition within!

if (it's Monday) { if (it's raining) { take an umbrella } else { take a book }}

Don't worry, it's not as scary as it looks! With practice, you'll be conditional-ly proficient in no time!
