I think an example would help the most with understanding this topic. For instance, if you wanted to return true for numbers between 3 and 10 and return false for everything else.
If we put the most specific case first, we make an if statement for the numbers between 3 and 10 instead of making an if statement for everything else.
When creating an if-else-if statement, what it means to put the most specific case first is:
Applied for only the specific command given by the lines of code
The if-else is a conditional statement that is used in programming to let the compiler know that once a specific condition is met, then the commands in the if statement are executed.
However, if at the end of the code, none of the expressions satisfies the conditions, then no code is executed.
Therefore, putting the most specific case first means that only the specific conditions must be met or else no code is executed.
