is_home() || is_front_page() not working

I have already tried everything, and searched in every place. Why doesn't it work?

This is my functions.php, the page always show "else".

My code:

wp_reset_query();
if(is_home() || is_front_page())
    die("if");
die("else");

you can use a hook in your function.php to execute a piece of code before everything else like this:

add_action('wp', 'check_home');
function check_home() {
    if(is_home() || is_front_page()) {
        die("yes");
    } else {
        die("no");
    }
}

You should never just write php statements that stand on it's own in your functions.php file. Only use it to define functions that your want to use somewhere else in your code, or define hooks like actions and filters with corresponding functions.
