Conditional Logic(If/Else) is probably best studied with a proper Javascript programming course, but here’s the basic structure…
// code to simulate a coin flip...
var randomNumber = Math.random() // returns a number from 0 to 0.999...
if (randomNumber > 0.5) {
console.log('coin lands on heads')
} elseif (randomNumber < 0.5) {
console.log('coin lands on tails')
} elseif (randomNumber == 0.5) {
console.log('coin lands standing on the edge')
} else {
console.log('coin rolls away and disappears forever')
}

There are great websites in hidden corners of the internet. 🙂 I like to see what people have collected on Are.na. Here’s a great collection — https://www.are.na/chia/poetic-web — by an artist/designer named Chia Amisola
