IF Statement multiple conditions

if i want all 3 conditions to be met at 1 time which is the correct format.

if ((sensreading > Params.LowAlert) && (Params.Control) && SkipDelay != 0 ) {

the compiler gives warning about this second one
if ((sensreading > Params.LowAlert) && (Params.Control) && (SkipDelay != 0 )) {

the braces and brackets for multiple conditions is still confusing to me

The first one is the correct format and the second one (as the compiler told you) is not.

The parentheses around Params.Control are harmless but unnecessary.

The parentheses around sensreading > Params.LowAlert may be unnecessary but make the expression more clear.

{} - braces
[] - brackets
() - parentheses

Unlike braces and brackets, parentheses cost nothing and serve to clarify order of execution. It seldom hurts to have too many (as long as they're matched) and also aid in (humans) understanding what's going on. With your example, the tests > and != have higher precedence than && so you could actually get away with
if (sensreading > Params.LowAlert && Params.Control && SkipDelay != 0 ){
but for clarity, and again at no cost, it is better style to go with
if ((sensreading > Params.LowAlert) && (Params.Control) && (SkipDelay != 0 )) {
and we all know style matters, others may not be immediately aware of the operator precedence.

FYI

the compiler gives warning about this second one
if ((sensreading > Params.LowAlert) && (Params.Control) && (SkipDelay != 0 )) {

Proof? Show me the warning.

its a strange error. the codes is over 3200 lines now

Nonsense. I've run all combinations through the IDE and the command line and can't generate a warning.

If any option were to be deemed 'correct' it would be

if ((sensreading > Params.LowAlert) && Params.Control && (SkipDelay != 0 ))

okay im still having a problem. i've marked in the code //start here and //end here between those two markers is the part of the code im woring on. in that part of code i marked remove these and it will compile. i had to modify the iremote library timer pins..

Unless there are problems with my editor (and there aren't) I find nothing in your error dump relating to that statement.

If there are problems elsewhere in your code, that's another issue. If you cannot reproduce the warning you claim to have had in your original post, I'd say pass it off as a side effect of a different problem. There is no reason that the statement(s) would generate any warnings. And I have proof!

im not sure what the root of the problem is but removing the 2 if statements in the code i uploaded allows it to compile. even if i move them it will compile

No, I tested the statements in your original post. This was not about fixing your sketch.

thankyou dkwatson i understand the parentheses a lot better. still unclear of the precedence level, but the problems persists why?

anyone that can actually tell me anything about the problem im having

dkwatson maybe you should upgrade your arduino ide

and as a matter of fact i dont get the error on ide 1.8.5

I've just tried compiling the code you attached and come up with only one error, so something is not in sync here.

Arduino: 1.8.6 (Windows 7), Board: "Arduino/Genuino Mega or Mega 2560, ATmega2560 (Mega 2560)"
