# 0071: Incorrect number of conditions

A [conditional statement](/language/control-flow/conditions.md) exceeds the number of conditions allowed per one statement. The maximum number of conditions combined with the `AND` or `OR` operation is `9`.

**Possible solutions:** split the conditional statement so that no statement has more than 9 conditions.

Transforming conditional statements while preserving the logical relation between conditions can be achieved by extracting the conditions into a separate subroutine as demonstrated below.

`AND`:

```
// before
if and
  0@ == 1
  1@ == 1
  2@ == 1
  3@ == 1
  4@ == 1
  5@ == 1
  6@ == 1
  7@ == 1
  8@ == 1
  9@ == 1 // error, too many conditions
  10@ == 1 // error, too many conditions
then
  // then code
else
  // else code
end

// after
if
  gosub @check
then
  // then code
else
  // else code
end

:check
if and
  0@ == 1
  1@ == 1
  2@ == 1
  3@ == 1
  4@ == 1
  5@ == 1
  6@ == 1
  7@ == 1
  8@ == 1
then
  if and
    9@ == 1
    10@ == 1
  then
    return
  end
end
return


```

`OR`:

```
// before
if or
  0@ == 1
  0@ == 2
  0@ == 3
  0@ == 4
  0@ == 5
  0@ == 6
  0@ == 7
  0@ == 8
  0@ == 9
  0@ == 10 // error, too many conditions
  0@ == 11 // error, too many conditions
then
  // then code
else
  // else code
end


// after
if 
  gosub @check
then
  // then code
else
  // else code
end

:check
if or
  0@ == 1
  0@ == 2
  0@ == 3
  0@ == 4
  0@ == 5
  0@ == 6
  0@ == 7
  0@ == 8
  0@ == 9
then
  return
end
if or
  0@ == 10
  0@ == 11
then
  return
end
return
```
