Talk:If
I would appreciate an example that shows the appropriate "if / elseif / else" construction. I assume that this will work:
if (a == "Loren") {
llSay(0, "Lorem ipsum sic amet!");
} else if (a == "Bob") {
llSay(0, "Babble dabble rabble rouse.");
} else {
llSay(0, "Gobbledygook? or English?");
}

This page is missing documentation on one of the major flaws of the LSL if() else() statement. When writing an if() else(), residents need to know that there is a limit of 23 else() statements (not including the first if() statement). Further documentation of this limitation including a workaround can be found in the if() statement article at http://rpgstats.com/wiki/index.php?=Ifelse . I would add this documentation myself but I'm not sure how or where in the article to add it.

- It looks like this limit is no longer in existence. i tested it with 50 else if and got a friend who tested about 120 without an error in LSL2 or mono. the connected jira VWR-811 is marked as resolved since about a week too. So the info can be removed?

It seems LSL parses if statements right to left.
Ex: if(a==3 && (a=3) && (a=4))llSay(0, "After statement: "+(string)a);
This will output "After statement: 3"
