### Age Check
`if / else if / else` chooses a branch from boolean conditions. Comparisons such as `<`, `>=`, `===` and logical operators `&&`, `||`, `!` combine the exact rules that decide which output is valid.
NEED HELP?
Hints
+
['Translate every case from the statement into a boolean condition before writing branches.', 'Mentally substitute at least one value for each branch and verify that exactly the intended branch runs.']
ANSWER
Solution
+
const fs = require('fs');
const input = fs.readFileSync(0, 'utf8').trimEnd();
let age = Number(input);
if (age < 14) {
console.log("CHILD");
} else {
console.log("TEEN_OR_ADULT");
}
