When the condition in an if statement is met, the code inside the if block is executed. After that, the program will move on to the code following the else statement, and it will be executed regardless of whether or not the condition in the if statement was met.

In other words, if the condition in the if statement is true, the code inside the else block will be executed. If the condition is false, the code inside the else block will still be executed. It serves as an alternative set of instructions to be followed in case the condition is not met.
