Hi,

I have to convert PowerShell Script (using if else condition) into anisble task.  
How we can work with condition in ansible tasks.

Here is my powershell script.

$officeInstalled = Get-WmiObject win32\_product | where { $\_.Name -like “Microsoft Office\*” } | select Name,Version

if ($officeInstalled -is [array])  
{
