Hello Alex,
This is not the way to follow if you want to learn programming. You
can't say "a, I changed this and I don't know why it is but it is
working". You need to understand what is going on, because may be one
day you won't be able to put the if else outside a loop and you then
don't know what to do. I suggest you place your code here and let us
try to show you what's happenimg and why the compiler is accepting the
code or not deppending on what you're trying to achiev.
Thanks
Marlon
