Copyright © 2015, 2012, 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., Publishing as Addison-Wesley All rights reserved. Relational Operators Used to compare numbers to determine relative order Operators: > Greater than < Less than >= Greater than or equal to <= Less than or equal to == Equal to != Not equal to 4
Copyright © 2015, 2012, 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., Publishing as Addison-Wesley All rights reserved. Relational Expressions Boolean expressions – true or false Examples: 12 > 5 is true 7 <= 5 is false if xyx is 10, then 10 == xyz is true, 8 != xyz is true, and 8 == xyz is false 5
Copyright © 2015, 2012, 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., Publishing as Addison-Wesley All rights reserved. Relational Expressions Can be assigned to a variable: result = x1 <= y1; Assigns 0 for false, 1 for true Do not confuse = and == The expression x1 = 10 is always true Use 10 = x1 which will cause a syntax error 6

Copyright © 2015, 2012, 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., Publishing as Addison-Wesley All rights reserved. The if Statement Allows statements to be conditionally executed or skipped over Models the way we mentally evaluate situations: "If it is raining, take an umbrella." "If it is cold outside, wear a coat." 8

The if/else if Statement Tests a series of conditions until one is found to be true Often simpler than using nested if/else statements Can be used to model thought processes such as: "If it is raining, take an umbrella, else, if it is windy, take a hat, else, take sunglasses” 34

Copyright © 2015, 2012, 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., Publishing as Addison-Wesley All rights reserved. Logical Operators Used to create relational expressions from other relational expressions Operators, meaning, and explanation: && ANDNew relational expression is true if both expressions are true || ORNew relational expression is true if either expression is true ! NOTReverses the value of an expression – true expression becomes false, and false becomes true 41
Copyright © 2015, 2012, 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., Publishing as Addison-Wesley All rights reserved. Logical Operators – Examples int x1 = 12, y1 = 5, z1 = -4; (x1 > y1) && (y1 > z1)true (x1 > y1) && (z1 > y1)false (x1 <= z1) || (y1 == z1)false (x1 <= z1) || (y1 != z1)true !(x1 >= z1)false 42

Copyright © 2015, 2012, 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., Publishing as Addison-Wesley All rights reserved. Checking Numeric Ranges with Logical Operators Used to test to see if a value falls inside a range: if (grade >= 0 && grade <= 100) std::cout << "Valid grade"; Can also test to see if value falls outside of range: if (grade = 100) std::cout << "Invalid grade"; Cannot use mathematical notation: if (0 <= grade <= 100) //doesn ’ t work! Evaluated as if ((0 <= grade) <= 100) And is always true. The 0 <= grade evaluates to true or false (1 or 0) either of which is <=

Copyright © 2015, 2012, 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., Publishing as Addison-Wesley All rights reserved.

More About Blocks and Scope A block of code is a group of statements between a set of braces { }. It is good programming style to line up the open and close brace and to indent the code between the braces A block of code may be nested in another block. Scope of a variable is the block in which it is defined, from the point of definition to the end of the block Usually defined at beginning of a block Must be defined before first use 75
