IIF() Function

The IIF function is used to check a condition. Suppose X>Y. In this condition a is the first expression and b is the second expression. If the first expression evaluates to TRUE then the first value is displayed, if not then the second value will display.

Syntax

IIF ( boolean_expression, true_value, false_value )

Example

DECLARE @X INT;

SET @X=50;

DECLARE @Y INT;

SET @Y=60;

Select iif(@X>@Y, 50, 60) As IIFResult

In this example X=50 and Y=60; in other words the condition is false.  Select iif(@X>@Y, 50, 60) As IIFResult. It returns false value that is 60.

Output
