Add a conditional statement that tests if the value in the variable a is greater than the value in variable b. If it is, pop up an alert with the message 'a is greater than b'; also add an else clause that pops up the message 'a is not greater than b'.
this is what I got:
var a = 10;
var b = 20;
var c = 30;
If ( a > b ) {
alert('a is greater than b');
} else {
alert('a is NOT greater than b');
}

Almost there!! Just change the If to lowercase then it works fine.
Happy coding
