else: what happens otherwise

Syntax and values

if temperature > 25:
    say "Warm"
else:
    say "Cool"

The condition must evaluate to Boolean. Pliro has no truthiness conversion.
The else clause is optional.

There is no elif or one-line else if form. Nest another if in the else
block:

if score >= 100:
    say "Gold"
else:
    if score >= 50:
        say "Silver"
    else:
        say "Bronze"

Behavior and details

An else clause cannot stand alone. Align it with its matching if and provide a nonempty block. There is no else-if clause on one line; nest another if as shown.

Example

# language: en
let score = 5
if score >= 10:
    say "A"
else:
    if score >= 5:
        say "B"
    else:
        say "C"
