In the example above, conditions A and B are comparison statements that may evaluate either _true_ or _false_. In the case both would evaluate _true_ then Situation 1 would be true as well. {% include note.html content="To learn how to write conditions, start with the Syntax Overview." %} {% endif %} {% if include.more == "yes" and include.content != "more" and include.heading != "more" %}
