jason.stdlib
Class if_then_else

java.lang.Object
  jason.asSemantics.DefaultInternalAction
      jason.stdlib.if_then_else

All Implemented Interfaces:

InternalAction, java.io.Serializable

public class if_then_else
extends DefaultInternalAction

Implementation of if.

Syntax:

  if ( logical formula ) {
     plan_body1
  [ } else { plan_body2 ]
  }

if logical formula holds, plan_body1 is executed; otherwise, plan_body2 is executed.

Example:

+event : context
  <- ....
     if (vl(X) & X > 10) { // where vl(X) is a belief
       .print("value > 10");
     }
     ....

The unification is changed by the evaluation of the logical formula, i.e., X might have a value after if.

                         throws java.lang.Exception

Description copied from interface: InternalAction

Executes the internal action. It should return a Boolean or an Iterator. A true boolean return means that the IA was successfully executed. An Iterator result means that there is more than one answer for this IA (e.g. see member internal action).
