Razor syntax to render section based on condition

Question

I got a view with Layout defined. In the layout, there is a section:

@RenderSection("JavaScript", required: false)

In the view, based on a condition, I want to either render certain JavaScript to the section or not.

@if (condition) {      @section JavaScript     {         <script type="text/javascript>            $(document).ready(function(){              //bla...            });         </script>     } } 

The above syntax is wrong. What's the correct syntax?

Edit

Basically, I got a partial view which needs to be rendered based on a condition. If the condition is true, then I need to render the partial view together with some JavaScript for the partial view, which I want to go to the "JavaScript" section. How can I do that?

@section blocks can only appear in markup contexts.

You can write

@if (condition) {      <text>         @section JavaScript         {             <script type="text/javascript>                $(document).ready(function(){                  //bla...                });             </script>         }     </text> }
