  • Doesn’t every if need an else, regardless of any elsifs?

    • Why?

      Is it your experience that if without an else is usually a problem?

      • No. It’s also not my experience that an elsif chain without an else is commonly a problem. So I’m wondering if you are seeing a systematic problem with conditionals – and if not, what the root issue really is.

        I wonder if it has something to do with the fact that when I intentionally write elsifs with no else, there are usually only one or two elsifs. (But again, this is usually.)
