Last time, we introduced control structures and mentioned if statements. These help our programs make decisions by running code only when something specific is true.

Ready to explore how the program knows if something is true?
That "something specific" is called a condition. Think of it as a question that must have a clear "yes" or "no" answer. In programming terms, these answers are True or False.

Does this idea of a true/false question feel familiar?
These special True and False values are called Booleans. Every condition inside an if statement evaluates to one of these two Boolean values. It's either True, or it's False.

Simple binary choice, right?
So how do we form these conditions? Often, we use comparison operators to compare values. For instance, we can check if a score is greater than 100 (>) or if a name is "Admin" ().
