title: \ after the condition and the code compiles, How?
body: <p>I have just noticed that I have a problem in my code and it is compiled!</p>
  
  <pre><code>else if (xx.yy(s.t.s() - 1) &lt; cc.vv)\
  {
      s.t.b().f.e();
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The problem is in the <code>\</code> at the end of the <code>else</code> if line.
  How was it considered as correct?</p>
