Lecture: Decision and looping structures
The if-then and if-then-else Statements
The if-then statement is the most basic of all the control flow statements. It tells your program to execute a
certain section of code only if a particular test evaluates to true.
Int x=10;
If (x>0){
System.out.println(“x is positive”);
}
else{
System.out.println(“x is negative”);
}
-------------------------------------public class TestNumber{
public static void main(String[] args){
double x=Double.parseDouble(args[0]);
if (x>0){
System.out.println(x+ " is positive");
}
else{
System.out.println(x+ " is negative");
}
}
}
Activity:
Type, compile and execute the following program
The switch Statement
Unlike if-then and if-then-else statements, the switch statement can have a number of possible
execution paths. A switch works with the byte, short, char, and int primitive data types. It also works
with enumerated types (discussed in Enum Types), the String class, and a few special classes that
wrap certain primitive types: Character, Byte, Short, and Integer
-------------------------------------------
The while and do-while Statements
The while statement continually executes a block of statements while a particular condition is true.
Its syntax can be expressed as:
while (expression) {
statement(s)
}
The for Statement
The for statement provides a compact way to iterate over a range of values. Programmers
often refer to it as the "for loop" because of the way in which it repeatedly loops until a
particular condition is satisfied. The general form of the for statement can be expressed as
follows:
for (initialization; termination;
increment) {
statement(s)
}
Homework:
1. Write a Calculator which can calculate any two numbers based on “ + - * /”
For example:
Input: java Calculator 3 + 2
Output: 3+2=5
Input: java Calculator 3 - 2
Output: 3-2=1
Input: java Calculator 3 / 2
Output: 3 / 2=1.5
Input: java Calculator 3 * 2
Output: 3 * 2=6
