ICA-CP: Syntax of if

State: The if statement executes commands if the condition is met.
Elaborate:

Here is the syntax:
if ( [the condition is met] )
{

// do what is between the braces

}
eXemplify:

Here's an example from Karel the Robot:

if (frontIsBlocked)
{
turnleft();
}

Illustrate: Using a if statement is like being a ticket collector at a Giants game. If you meet the condition of having a ticket, the ticket collector takes your ticket. Then you can go into the game.
