Question

I am doing a computer science assignment right now and im having a little bit of trouble. I have to use an "if" statement in MATLAB and im a little lost on how to use it.

I am trying to code: "GrossIncome <= TaxableIncome" then it equals "GrossIncome"

"GrossIncome > TaxableIncome" then it is "GrossIncome - TaxableIncome" which equals "Taxable"

I tried doing:

if GrossIncome <= TaxableIncome
fprintf(' GrossIncome ')
else
if GrossIncome > TaxableIncome
fprintf(' GrossIncome - TaxableIncome = Taxable ')
end
end

But it just prints it and does'nt actually do the math being done. Idk what coding to use to fix this. Thanks for the help.

Explanation / Answer

//Tested on online ocatve


GrossIncome=500%initial amount
TaxableIncome=400%initial amount

if GrossIncome <= TaxableIncome
      % if condition is true then print the following
      fprintf('%d',GrossIncome );
   elseif GrossIncome > TaxableIncome
     
      % if else if condition is true
      fprintf('%d',GrossIncome - TaxableIncome);
   end

/***********output**********/

Thanks a lot
