csh C shell scripts: if statement syntax

Conditional expressions give programs life. The ability to branch makes shell scripts powerful. This recipe shows the basic if then else structure for csh, the C shell.

Basic if statement syntax:

Code:

if (condition) then 
    commands 
endif

The addition of one or more else keywords offers additional flexibility:

Code:

if (condition) then 
    commands 
else if (other condition) then 
    commands 
else 
    commands 
endif
