A conditional statement consists of the keyword if followed by the test condition and a statement block. The statement block is mandatory. An else keyword may also be used to specify an alternate condition.
String comparison operators are:
eq (equality) ne (inequality) lt (less than) le (less than or equal to) gt (greater than) ge (greater than or equal to)
Numeric comparison operators are:
== (equality) != (inequality) < (less than) <= (less than or equal to) > (greater than) >= (greater than or equal to)
Arguments are automatically treated as strings or numbers based on the comparison operator that is used. Strings may also contain wildcards such as *.
