### `Rx.Observable.if(condition, thenSource, [elseSource])`
### `Rx.Observable.ifThen(condition, thenSource, [elseSource])` *DEPRECATED*
[Ⓢ](https://github.com/Reactive-Extensions/RxJS/blob/master/src/core/linq/observable/if.js "View in source")
Determines whether an observable collection contains values. There is an alias for this method called `ifThen` for browsers <IE9
#### Arguments
1. `condition` *(`Function`)*: The condition which determines if the thenSource or elseSource will be run.
2. `thenSource` *(`Observable`)*: thenSource The observable sequence that will be run if the condition function returns true.
3. `[elseSource]` *(Observable|Scheduler)*: The observable sequence that will be run if the condition function returns false. If this is not provided, it defaults to Rx.Observabe.Empty with the specified scheduler.
#### Returns
*(`Observable`)*: The generated sequence.
#### Example
```js
// This uses and only then source
var shouldRun = true;
var source = Rx.Observable.if(
function () { return shouldRun; },
Rx.Observable.return(42)
);
var subscription = source.subscribe(
function (x) {
console.log('Next: ' + x);
},
function (err) {
console.log('Error: ' + err);
},
function () {
console.log('Completed');
});
// => Next: 42
// => Completed
// The next example uses an elseSource
var shouldRun = false;
var source = Rx.Observable.if(
function () { return shouldRun; },
Rx.Observable.return(42),
Rx.Observable.return(56)
);
var subscription = source.subscribe(
function (x) {
console.log('Next: ' + x);
},
function (err) {
console.log('Error: ' + err);
},
function () {
console.log('Completed');
});
// => Next: 56
// => Completed
```
