Some coding statements (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ifs

(Other definitions for ifs that I've seen before include "Suppositions, may be accompanied by buts" , "Conditional conjunctions" , "If . . . and ands were pots and pans" , "No ...,ands or buts, no argument allowed" , "Conditions or suppositions, may join with buts" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
