Use with the [`if`] statement:
```go-html-template
{{ $var := "foo" }}
{{ if $var }}
{{ $var }} → foo
{{ else }}
{{ print "var is falsy" }}
{{ end }}
```
Use with the [`with`] statement:
```go-html-template
{{ $var := "foo" }}
{{ with $var }}
{{ . }} → foo
{{ else }}
{{ print "var is falsy" }}
{{ end }}
```
Use with the [`range`] statement:
```go-html-template
{{ $var := slice 1 2 3 }}
{{ range $var }}
{{ . }} → 1 2 3
{{ else }}
{{ print "var is falsy" }}
{{ end }}
```
Use `else if` to check multiple conditions.
```go-html-template
{{ $var := 12 }}
{{ if eq $var 6 }}
{{ print "var is 6" }}
{{ else if eq $var 7 }}
{{ print "var is 7" }}
{{ else if eq $var 42 }}
{{ print "var is 42" }}
{{ else }}
{{ print "var is something else" }}
{{ end }}
```
