NOTE :

In writing conditional sentences if, we may put the “IF CLAUSE” before the “RESULT CLAUSE” and vice versa.

However, we must put comma (,) at the end of the “RESULT CLAUSE” if the “IF CLAUSE” is put before the “RESULT CLAUSE”.

Also, the meaning of the fact must be on the contrary with the conditional sentence if. So, if the conditional sentence if is in positive form, the fact will be in negative one and vice versa.
