#else directive

#else directive Else for conditional compilation 
#else

The #else directive marks a region of conditional compilation. Every #else must be paired with an introductory directive: #if, #ifdef, or #ifndef. There can be any number of intervening #elif directives. If the initial condition was false (0), and every subsequent #elif condition is false, statements that follow the #else directive are compiled until the corresponding #endif directive is reached.
