Copyright 2008 by Pearson Education 1 The if statement Executes a block of statements only if a test is true if ( test ) { statement ;... statement ; } Example: double gpa = console.nextDouble(); if (gpa >= 2.0) { System.out.println("Application accepted."); }

Copyright 2008 by Pearson Education 2 The if/else statement Executes one block if a test is true, another if false if ( test ) { statement(s) ; } else { statement(s) ; } Example: double gpa = console.nextDouble(); if (gpa >= 2.0) { System.out.println("Welcome to Mars University!"); } else { System.out.println("Application denied."); }

Copyright 2008 by Pearson Education 3 Relational expressions A test in an if. if (i <= 10) {... These are boolean expressions. Tests use relational operators: OperatorMeaningExampleValue == equals == 2true != does not equal 3.2 != 2.5true < less than 10 < 5false > greater than 10 > 5true <= less than or equal to 126 <= 100false >= greater than or equal to 5.0 >= 5.0true

Copyright 2008 by Pearson Education 4 Logical operators: &&, ||, ! Conditions can be combined using logical operators: OperatorDescriptionExampleResult && and (2 == 3) && (-1 < 5)false || or (2 == 3) || (-1 < 5)true ! not !(2 == 3)true pqp && qp || q true false true falsetruefalsetrue false p !p!p truefalse true

Copyright 2008 by Pearson Education 5 Evaluating logic expressions Relational operators have lower precedence than math. 5 * 7 >= * (7 - 1) 5 * 7 >= * 6 35 >= >= 33 true Relational operators cannot be "chained" as in algebra. 2 <= x <= 10 (assume that x is 15 ) true <= 10 error! Instead, combine multiple tests with && or || 2 <= x && x <= 10 (assume that x is 15 ) true && false false

Copyright 2008 by Pearson Education 6 Logical questions What is the result of each of the following expressions? int x = 42; int y = 17; int z = 25; y < x && y <= z x % 2 == y % 2 || x % 2 == z % 2 x = y + z !(x < y && x < z) (x + y) % 2 == 0 || !((z - y) % 2 == 0) Answers: true, false, true, true, false

Copyright 2008 by Pearson Education 7 Sequential if bug What's wrong with the following code? Scanner console = new Scanner(System.in); System.out.print("What percentage did you earn? "); int percent = console.nextInt(); if (percent >= 90) { System.out.println("You got an A!"); } if (percent >= 80) { System.out.println("You got a B!"); } if (percent >= 70) { System.out.println("You got a C!"); } if (percent >= 60) { System.out.println("You got a D!"); } else { System.out.println("You got an F!"); }...

Copyright 2008 by Pearson Education 8 Nested if/else Chooses between outcomes using many tests if ( test ) { statement(s) ; } else if ( test ) { statement(s) ; } else { statement(s) ; } Example: if (number > 0) { System.out.println("Positive"); } else if (number < 0) { System.out.println("Negative"); } else { System.out.println("Zero"); }

Copyright 2008 by Pearson Education 9 Nested if/else/if If it ends with else, one code path must be taken. If it ends with if, the program might not execute any path. if ( test ) { statement(s) ; } else if ( test ) { statement(s) ; } else if ( test ) { statement(s) ; } Example: if (place == 1) { System.out.println("You win the gold medal!"); } else if (place == 2) { System.out.println("You win a silver medal!"); } else if (place == 3) { System.out.println("You earned a bronze medal."); }

Copyright 2008 by Pearson Education 10 Pure Nesting if ( test ) { statement(s) ; } else if ( test ) { statement(s) ; }else { statement(s) ; } Chain if ( test ) { statement(s) ; } else if ( test ) { statement(s) ; } else if ( test ) { statement(s) ; } Independent tests, not exclusive if ( test ) { statement(s) ; } if ( test ) { statement(s) ; } if ( test ) { statement(s) ; }

Copyright 2008 by Pearson Education 11 Code in need of factoring if (money < 500) { System.out.println("You have, $" + money + " left."); System.out.print("Caution! Bet carefully."); System.out.print("How much do you want to bet? "); bet = console.nextInt(); } else if (money < 1000) { System.out.println("You have, $" + money + " left."); System.out.print("Consider betting moderately."); System.out.print("How much do you want to bet? "); bet = console.nextInt(); } else { System.out.println("You have, $" + money + " left."); System.out.print("You may bet liberally."); System.out.print("How much do you want to bet? "); bet = console.nextInt(); }

Copyright 2008 by Pearson Education 12 Code after factoring System.out.println("You have, $" + money + " left."); if (money < 500) { System.out.print("Caution! Bet carefully."); } else if (money < 1000) { System.out.print("Consider betting moderately."); } else { System.out.print("You may bet liberally."); } System.out.print("How much do you want to bet? "); bet = console.nextInt(); If the start of each branch is the same, move it before the if/else. If the end of each branch is the same, move it after the if/else. If similar but code exists in each branch, look for patterns.

Copyright 2008 by Pearson Education 13 The "dangling if " problem What can be improved about the following code? if (x < 0) { System.out.println("x is negative"); } else if (x >= 0) { System.out.println("x is non-negative"); } The second if test is unnecessary and can be removed: if (x < 0) { System.out.println("x is negative"); } else { System.out.println("x is non-negative"); } This is also relevant in methods that use if with return...

Copyright 2008 by Pearson Education 14 if/else with return Methods can return different values using if/else : // Returns the largest of the three given integers. public static int max3(int a, int b, int c) { if (a >= b && a >= c) { return a; } else if (b >= c && b >= a) { return b; } else { return c; } Whichever path the code enters, it will return the appropriate value. Returning a value causes a method to immediately exit. All code paths must reach a return statement. All paths must also return a value of the same type.

Copyright 2008 by Pearson Education 15 All paths must return public static int max3(int a, int b, int c) { if (a >= b && a >= c) { return a; } else if (b >= c && b >= a) { return b; } // Error: not all paths return a value } The following also does not compile: public static int max3(int a, int b, int c) { if (a >= b && a >= c) { return a; } else if (b >= c && b >= a) { return b; } else if (c >= a && c >= b) { return c; } } The compiler thinks if/else/if code might skip all paths.
