The syntax of "if" is: if (expression) statement; and one possible expression is: expression && expression so this is a valid if condition: if (expression && expression) Now, you *may* need additional parentheses around the expressions if they contain lower-priority operators than &&, but they are not required. Also: a statement is *not* an expression, so the if condition can never include statements! Cheers!
