Scalability, my friend. that's why elif exists

Actually, C calls it else if, which makes a LOT more sense.

Are you sure? The C preprocessor statement #elif is not called ‘#else if’.

Hi! This is my signature - @superbuddy2 - and I am taking applications for my Scratch Operating System, where I plan to make a full-on third-party app store. Go here to submit your application. Also there is a basic trailer here. I will also be publishing updates here.

Some tutorials and scripts.

No support, there's an incredibly easy workaround.

It's still not very clean Most programming languages have this feature, it would be useful to teach childeren the style of proper proramming languages.

Nothing here.

Bumping?

Support, love this idea! Would be super helpful instead of nesting if else and if loops.

Although this does look better than stacking a bunch of if else blocks, i think probably 90% of the time you wouldnt need so many of them so that it gets too cluttered.

Python users do, as that's the name of the Python keyword.

What's wrong with simply stacking if/elses?
if <...> then
    ...
else
if <...> then
    ...

if <...> then

if <...> then

THANKS, really helped me

I suggest adding an Elif (else-if) Block so you don't have to have numerous else and if blocks. I also suggest, with this, that you can change the elif amount ( making it changeable by length through numbers as part of the elif block.).
I hope you take this into account, as I would find it very useful.

(Feels like a speech! XD)

An “elif” block is basically a “If then else” block with another “if then” loop in it, but with less steps.They're both equally good, so I can't say “support” but I can't say “no support”.

I think the amount of else-ifs could be changed by right clicking the block, so you could have a block like this:

if<>then{
}else if<>then{
}else if<>then{
}else if<>then{
}else if<>then{
}else if<>then{
}else if<>then{
}else{
}::control

Other languages (other than Python, ick) don't have this feature. Using an “else if” conditional would be the same as doing else then a line break then an if. I don't think Scratch needs this, although I would like a switch structure.

Many languages have this!
Also

if <[likes v] contains [dogs]> then
say [i like dogs!]
end
if <[likes v] contains [cats]> then
say [i like cats!]
end
if <[likes v] contains [birds]> then
say [i like birds!]
end
if <[likes v] contains [bunnies]> then
say [i like bunnies!]
end
if <[likes v] contains [hamsters]> then
say [i like hamsters!]
end
if <[likes v] contains [chickens]> then
say [i like chickens!]
else
say [no known likes.]
end

is different from those 2 with identical behavior:

if <[likes v] contains [dogs]> then
say [i like dogs!]
else
if <[likes v] contains [cats]> then
say [i like cats!]
else
if <[likes v] contains [birds]> then
say [i like birds!]
else
if <[likes v] contains [bunnies]> then
say [i like bunnies!]
else
if <[likes v] contains [hamsters]> then
say [i like hamsters!]
else
if <[likes v] contains [chickens]> then
say [i like chickens!]
else
say [no known likes.]
end
end
end
end
end
end

and

if <[likes v] contains [dogs]> then{
say [i like dogs!]
}else if <[likes v] contains [cats]> then{
say [i like cats!]
}else if <[likes v] contains [birds]> then{
say [i like birds!]
} else if <[likes v] contains [bunnies]> then{
say [i like bunnies!]
} else if <[likes v] contains [hamsters]> then{
say [i like hamsters!]
} else if <[likes v] contains [chickens]> then{
say [i like chickens!]
} else {
say [no known likes.]
}::control
