Two problems with your code:
(1) The "else" has to be on the same line as the closing "}" -- this was
confusing for me as well.
(2) "and" probably should be "&", but read up on logical operators: ?&
Better to always use && in an if.

Try:
ini=3
b=4
if (ini==1) {
a=3
} else if (ini>1 & b>2 ) {
a=3
} else {
a=6
}

Hello,
I am doing a if else statement in R. But it always comes out error such as
'unexpected symbol'
There are two variables. ini and b. when ini=1, a=3; when ini>1 and b>2,
a=3; all other situations, a=6. I don't know where it is wrong.
Here is my code
ini=3
b=4
if (ini==1) {
a=3
}
else if (ini>1 and b>2 ) {
a=3
}
else {a=6}
Thanks a lot.
