Whats wrong with the if else structure
whats wrong with the syntax, just the if-else part? Struggling for a bit with this now..I`m simply trying to increment 3 variables based on missing data, matches or mismatches for i and j

Code:
 
.......
 
{for(i=1;i<=NF;i++)
    for(j=i+1;j<=NF;j++)
       { if(i=="" || $j=="")   m[i,j]++ 
  elseif($i==$j) c[i,j]++ 
   else p[i,j]++ } 
}
........

elseif is incorrect. Try else if

Also there is a $-sign missing before one of the i 's
