4 Flow of Control Unless specified otherwise, the order of statement execution through a method is linear: one statement after another in sequence Some programming statements allow us to: –decide whether or not to execute a particular statement –execute a statement over and over, repetitively These decisions are controlled by boolean expressions (or conditions) that evaluate to true or false The order of statement execution is called the flow of control
5
5 Conditional Statements A conditional statement lets us choose which statement will be executed next Therefore they are sometimes called selection statements Conditional statements give us the power to make basic decisions The Java conditional statements are the: –if statement –if-else statement –switch statement
6
6 Examples of if statements Double hoursWorked; // Scan in a value of hoursWorked. if (hoursWorked > 40.0 ) grossPay = 40 * payRate + 1.5 * payRate * (hoursWorked – 40); int heightInInches; // Scan in a value of heightInInches if (heightInInches < 48 ) system.out.println(“Customer too small,” + “ do not let on ride.”);
7
7 The if Statement The if statement has the following syntax: if ( condition ) statement; if is a Java reserved word The condition must be a boolean expression. It must evaluate to either true or false. If the condition is true, the statement is executed. If it is false, the statement is skipped.
8
8 Logic of an if statement condition evaluated statement true false
9
9 Boolean Expressions A condition often uses one of Java's equality operators or relational operators, which all return boolean results: == equal to != not equal to < less than > greater than <= less than or equal to >= greater than or equal to Note the difference between the equality operator ( == ) and the assignment operator ( = )
10
10 The if Statement if (sum > MAX) delta = sum - MAX; System.out.println ("The sum is " + sum); First the condition is evaluated -- the value of sum is either greater than the value of MAX, or it is not If the condition is true, the assignment statement is executed -- if it isn’t, it is skipped. Either way, the call to println is executed next See Age.java (page 216)Age.java An example of an if statement :
11
11 Age.java (page 216) import java.util.Scanner; public class Age { // Reads the user's age and prints comments accordingly. public static void main (String[] args) { final int MINOR = 21; Scanner scan = new Scanner (System.in); System.out.print ("Enter your age: "); int age = scan.nextInt(); System.out.println ("You entered: " + age); if (age < MINOR) System.out.println ("Youth is a wonderful thing. Enjoy."); System.out.println ("Age is a state of mind."); } }
12
12 Age.java (page 216) output Enter your age: 19 You entered: 19 Youth is a wonderful thing. Enjoy. Age is a state of mind. Enter your age: 57 You entered: 57 Age is a state of mind.
13
13 Indentation The statement controlled by the if statement is indented to indicate that relationship The use of a consistent indentation style makes a program easier to read and understand Although it makes no difference to the compiler, proper indentation is crucial to understanding the flow of the program. "Always code as if the person who ends up maintaining your code will be a violent psychopath who knows where you live." -- Martin Golding
14
14 The if Statement What do the following statements do? if (top >= MAXIMUM) top = 0; Sets top to zero if the current value of top is greater than or equal to the value of MAXIMUM if (total != stock + warehouse) inventoryError = true; Sets a flag to true if the value of total is not equal to the sum of stock and warehouse The precedence of the arithmetic operators is higher than the precedence of the equality and relational operators
15
15 Logical Operators Boolean expressions can also use the following logical operators: ! Logical NOT && Logical AND || Logical OR They all take boolean operands and produce boolean results Logical NOT is a unary operator (it operates on one operand) Logical AND and logical OR are binary operators (each operates on two operands)
16
16 Logical NOT The logical NOT operation is also called logical negation or logical complement If some boolean condition a is true, then !a is false; if a is false, then !a is true Logical expressions can be shown using a truth table a!a truefalse true
17
17 Logical AND and Logical OR The logical AND expression a && b is true if both a and b are true, and false otherwise The logical OR expression a || b is true if either a or b or both are true, and false otherwise
18
18 Logical Operators Expressions that use logical operators can form complex conditions if (total < MAX+5 && !found) System.out.println ("Processing…"); All logical operators have lower precedence than the relational operators Logical NOT has higher precedence than logical AND and logical OR
19
19 Logical Operators A truth table shows all possible true-false combinations of the terms Since && and || each have two operands, there are four possible combinations of conditions a and b aba && ba || b true false true falsetruefalsetrue false
20
20 Boolean Expressions Specific expressions can be evaluated using truth tables total < MAX found!found total < MAX && !found false truefalse truefalse truefalsetrue false
21
21 Short-Circuited Operators The processing of logical AND and logical OR is “short-circuited” If the left operand is sufficient to determine the result, the right operand is not evaluated This type of processing must be used carefully Usually short circuiting has no effect on your code and can be ignored. if (count != 0 && total/count > MAX) System.out.println ("Testing…");

23
23 The if-else Statement An else clause can be added to an if statement to make an if-else statement if ( condition ) statement1; else statement2; If the condition is true, statement1 is executed; if the condition is false, statement2 is executed One or the other will be executed, but not both See Wages.java (page 219)Wages.java
24
24 public class Wages { // Reads the number of hours worked and calculates wages. public static void main (String[] args) { final double RATE = 8.25; // regular pay rate final int STANDARD = 40; // standard hours in a work week Scanner scan = new Scanner (System.in); double pay = 0.0; System.out.print ("Enter the number of hours worked: "); int hours = scan.nextInt(); System.out.println (); // Pay overtime at "time and a half" if (hours > STANDARD) pay = STANDARD * RATE + (hours-STANDARD) * (RATE * 1.5); else pay = hours * RATE; NumberFormat fmt = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(); System.out.println ("Gross earnings: " + fmt.format(pay)); } }
25
25 Wages.java (page 219) output Enter the number of hours worked: 40 Gross earnings: $330.00 Enter the number of hours worked: 50 Gross earnings: $453.75
26
26 Logic of an if-else statement condition evaluated statement1 true false statement2
27
27 The Coin Class Let's examine a class that represents a coin that can be flipped Instance data is used to indicate which face (heads or tails) is currently showing See CoinFlip.java (page 220)CoinFlip.java See Coin.java (page 221)Coin.java
28
28 // CoinFlip.java Author: Lewis/Loftus // // Demonstrates the use of an if-else statement. public class CoinFlip { // Creates a Coin object, flips it, and prints the results. public static void main (String[] args) { Coin myCoin = new Coin(); myCoin.flip(); System.out.println (myCoin); if (myCoin.isHeads()) System.out.println ("You win."); else System.out.println ("Better luck next time."); } }
29
29 CoinFlip.java (page 220) output Tails Better luck next time. Heads You win.
30
30 Coin API Constructor public Coin () Sets up the coin by flipping it initially Methods public void flip () - Flips the coin by randomly choosing a face value.. public boolean isHeads () - Returns true if the current face of the coin is heads. public String toString() - Returns the current face of the coin as a string, “Heads” or “Tails”
31
31 public class Coin { private final int HEADS = 0; private final int TAILS = 1; private int face; // Constructor Sets up the coin by flipping it initially. public Coin () { flip(); } // Flips the coin by randomly choosing a face value. public void flip () { face = (int) (Math.random() * 2); } // Returns true if the current face of the coin is heads. public boolean isHeads () { return (face == HEADS); } // Check this out // Returns the current face of the coin as a string. public String toString() // Can you reduce this by 1 stment? { String faceName; if (face == HEADS) faceName = "Heads"; else faceName = "Tails"; return faceName; }}
32
32 Indentation Revisited Remember that indentation is for the human reader, and is ignored by the computer if (total > MAX) System.out.println ("Error!!"); errorCount++; Despite what is implied by the indentation, the increment will occur whether the condition is true or not
33
33 Block Statements Several statements can be grouped together into a block statement delimited by braces A block statement can be used wherever a statement is called for in the Java syntax rules if (total > MAX) { System.out.println ("Error!!"); errorCount++; }
34
34 Block Statements In an if-else statement, the if portion, or the else portion, or both, could be block statements if (total > MAX) { System.out.println ("Error!!"); errorCount++; } else { System.out.println ("Total: “ + total); current = total*2; } See Guessing.java (page 223)Guessing.java
35
35 public class Guessing { // Plays a simple guessing game with the user. public static void main (String[] args) { final int MAX = 10; int answer, guess; Scanner scan = new Scanner (System.in); Random generator = new Random(); answer = generator.nextInt(MAX) + 1; System.out.print ("I'm thinking of a number between 1 and " + MAX + ". Guess what it is: "); guess = scan.nextInt(); if (guess == answer) System.out.println ("You got it! Good guessing!"); else { System.out.println ("That is not correct, sorry."); System.out.println ("The number was " + answer); } }}
36
36 Guessing.java (page 223) output I'm thinking of a number between 1 and 10. Guess what it is: 7 That is not correct, sorry. The number was 2 I'm thinking of a number between 1 and 10. Guess what it is: 1 You got it! Good guessing!
37
37 The Conditional Operator Java has a conditional operator that uses a boolean condition to determine which of two expressions is evaluated Its syntax is: condition ? expression1 : expression2 If the condition is true, expression1 is evaluated; if it is false, expression2 is evaluated The value of the entire conditional operator is the value of the selected expression
38
38 The Conditional Operator The conditional operator is similar to an if-else statement, except that it is an expression that returns a value For example: larger = ((num1 > num2) ? num1 : num2); If num1 is greater than num2, then num1 is assigned to larger ; otherwise, num2 is assigned to larger The conditional operator is ternary because it requires three operands
39
39 Answer: 5 What is the value of larger when this is done? The Conditional Operator int num1 = 5, num2 = 3; larger = ((num1 > num2) ? num1 : num2); Evaluate this expression Return this value if expression is true Return this value if expression is false
40
40 The Conditional Operator Another example : System.out.println ("Your change is " + count +((count == 1) ? "Dime" : "Dimes")); If count equals 1, then "Dime" is printed If count is anything other than 1, then "Dimes" is printed
41
41 Nested if Statements The statement executed as a result of an if statement or else clause could be another if statement These are called nested if statements See MinOfThree.java (page 227)MinOfThree.java An else clause is matched to the last unmatched if (no matter what the indentation implies) Braces can be used to specify the if statement to which an else clause belongs
42
42 MinOfThree.java (page 227) bad example int num1, num2, num3, min = 0; Scanner scan = new Scanner (System.in); System.out.println ("Enter three integers: "); num1 = scan.nextInt(); num2 = scan.nextInt(); num3 = scan.nextInt(); if (num1 < num2) // more confusing than it needs to be if (num1 < num3) min = num1; else min = num3; else if (num2 < num3) min = num2; else min = num3; System.out.println ("Minimum value: " + min);
43
43 MinOfThree.java (page 227) output Enter three integers: 5 1 3 Minimum value: 1 Enter three integers: 1 3 5 Minimum value: 1 Enter three integers: 3 5 1 Minimum value: 1
44
44 MinOfThree.java (page 227) improved (but no longer demonstrates nested if else) int num1, num2, num3, min = 0; Scanner scan = new Scanner (System.in); System.out.println ("Enter three integers: "); num1 = scan.nextInt(); num2 = scan.nextInt(); num3 = scan.nextInt(); min = num1; if (num2 < min) min = num2; if (num3 < min) min = num3; System.out.println ("Minimum value: " + min);
45
45 Tax Rate Problem Let’s say that there are 4 income tax rates in some country. The rates are: 0 <= income < 10,000: tax rate = 0% 10,000 <= income < 30,000: tax rate = 5% 30,000 <= income < 60,000: tax rate = 10% income >= 60,000: tax rate = 15% Write a program that inputs a person’s income and prints out their maximum tax rate.
46
46 Tax Program design What do we need to do? Let’s set up some steps. 1.Ask the user to input their amount of income, can be dollars and cents. 2.Read the income 3.Based on income, figure out tax rate: A person making less than $10,000 has 0% tax A person making $10,000 but less than $30,000 has 5% tax A person making $30,000 but less than $60,000 has 10% tax A person making more than $60,000 has 15% tax. 4. Print out the maximum tax rate.
47
47 Tax rate program, first try, no if else double income, maxTax = 0.0; Scanner scan = new Scanner (System.in); System.out.print ("Enter the annual income: "); income = scan.nextDouble(); if (income = 10000.0 && income = 30000.0 && income = 60000.0) maxTax = 0.15; System.out.println ("Maximum tax rate: " + NumberFormat.getPercentInstance().format(maxTax));
48
48 Tax rate program, cleaner version double income, maxTax = 0.0; Scanner scan = new Scanner (System.in); System.out.print ("Enter the annual income: "); income = scan.nextDouble(); if (income < 10000) maxTax = 0.0; else if (income < 30000 ) maxTax = 0.05; else if (income < 60000 ) maxTax = 0.10; else maxTax = 0.15; System.out.println ("Maximum tax rate: " + NumberFormat.getPercentInstance().format(maxTax));
49
49 Logic of an if-else statement condition evaluated statement1 true false statement2 Statement2 consists of several if else’s but the entire thing is skipped if the condition is true.
50
50 The switch Statement The switch statement provides another way to decide which statement to execute next The switch statement evaluates an expression, then attempts to match the result to one of several possible cases Each case contains a value and a list of statements The flow of control transfers to statement associated with the first case value that matches
51
51 The switch Statement // char option has a value at this point switch (option) { case 'A': aCount++; break; case 'B': bCount++; break; case 'C': cCount++; break; } An example of a switch statement:
52
52 The switch Statement The general syntax of a switch statement is: switch ( expression ) { case value1 : statement-list1 case value2 : statement-list2 case value3 : statement-list3 case... } switch and case are reserved words If expression matches value2, control jumps to here If the expression matches value2, statement-list2 is executed and all the statement lists following this one are executed. Put a break statement in so only statement-list2 is executed.
53
53 The switch Statement, usual form switch ( expression ) { case value1 : statement-list1 break; case value2 : statement-list2 break; case value3 : statement-list3 break; case... } next-statement If expression matches value2, control jumps to here Break placed after each statement-list Break causes control to transfer to the next statement, the one directly following the switch
54
54 The switch Statement The actions in the switch are usually mutually exclusive. Only one of the options is executed. If a break statement is not used, the flow of control will continue into the next case. Sometimes this may be appropriate, but usually we want to execute only the statements associated with one case
55
55 The switch Statement with default // char option has a value at this point switch (option) { case 'A': aCount++; break; case 'B': bCount++; break; case 'C': cCount++; break; case ‘D’: case ‘F’: dfCount++; break; default: System.out.println(“Input must “ + “be A,B,C, D, F.\n was entered.”);
56
56 default clause A switch statement can have an optional default case Control will transfer to it if no other case value matches If there is no default case, and no other value matches, control falls through to the statement after the switch
57
57 The switch Statement The expression of a switch statement must result in an integral type, meaning an integer ( byte, short, int, long ) or a char It cannot be a boolean value (use an if instead) or a floating point value ( float or double ) The implicit boolean condition in a switch statement is equality, you cannot perform relational checks with a switch statement See GradeReport.java (page 233)GradeReport.java
58
58 int grade, category; Scanner scan = new Scanner (System.in); System.out.print ("Enter a numeric grade (0 to 100): "); grade = scan.nextInt(); category = grade / 10; System.out.print ("That grade is "); switch (category) { case 10: System.out.println ("a perfect score. Well done."); break; case 9: System.out.println ("well above average. Excellent."); break; case 8: System.out.println ("above average. Nice job."); break; case 7: System.out.println ("average."); break; case 6: System.out.println ("below average. You should see the"); System.out.println ("instructor to clarify the material " + "presented in class."); break; default: System.out.println ("not passing."); }

60 Outline The if Statement and Conditions – Oct. 25 Other Conditional Statements – Oct. 25 Comparing Data – Oct. 30 The while Statement – Nov. 8 Iterators – Nov. 8 Other Repetition Statements – Nov. 8, 13 Decisions and Graphics – Nov. 13 More Components (skip)
61
61 Comparing Data When comparing data using boolean expressions, it's important to understand the nuances of certain data types Let's examine some key situations: –Comparing floating point values for equality –Comparing characters –Comparing strings (alphabetical order) –Comparing object vs. comparing object references
62
62 Comparing Float Values You should rarely use the equality operator ( == ) when comparing two floating point values ( float or double ) Two floating point values are equal only if their underlying binary representations match exactly Floating point computations often result in slight differences that may be irrelevant to you but not to the computer In many situations, you might consider two floating point numbers to be "close enough" even if they aren't exactly equal Often use relation tests (e.g., >=) with floating point values.
63
63 Comparing Float Values To determine the equality of two floats, you may want to use the following technique: if (Math.abs(f1 - f2) < TOLERANCE) System.out.println ("Essentially equal"); If the difference between the two floating point values is less than the tolerance, they are considered to be equal The tolerance could be set to any appropriate level, such as 0.000001
64
64 Comparing Characters As we've discussed, Java character data is based on the Unicode character set Unicode establishes a particular numeric value for each character, and therefore an ordering We can use relational operators on character data based on this ordering For example, the character '+' is less than the character ' J' because it comes before it in the Unicode character set Appendix C provides an overview of Unicode
65
65 Comparing Characters In Unicode, the digit characters (0-9) are contiguous and in order Likewise, the uppercase letters (A-Z) and lowercase letters (a-z) are contiguous and in order CharactersUnicode Values 0 – 948 through 57 A – Z65 through 90 a – z97 through 122
66
66 Comparing Strings Remember that in Java a character string is an object Using the test if (name1 == name2) will return true if name1 and name2 have the same address in memory, i.e. if they are the same String object. The equals method can be called with strings to determine if two strings contain exactly the same characters in the same order The equals method returns a boolean result if (name1.equals(name2)) System.out.println ("Same name");
67
67 Comparing Strings We cannot use the relational operators to compare strings The String class contains a method called compareTo to determine if one string comes before another A call to name1.compareTo(name2) –returns zero if name1 and name2 are equal (contain the same characters) –returns a negative value if name1 is less than name2 –returns a positive value if name1 is greater than name2
68
68 Comparing Strings name1.compareTo(name2) name1 < name2: returns a negative value name1 = name2: returns zero (name1 and name2 contain the same characters but are not necessarily the same object) name1 > name2: returns a positive value
69
69 Comparing Strings if (name1.compareTo(name2) < 0) System.out.println (name1 + "comes first"); else if (name1.compareTo(name2) == 0) System.out.println ("Same name"); else System.out.println (name2 + "comes first"); The above results in comparing strings in the same way as they are compared (and sequenced) in a dictionary. Another word for “dictionary” is “lexicon”. This sequencing is traditionally called lexicographic ordering
70
70 Lexicographic Ordering Lexicographic ordering is not strictly alphabetical when uppercase and lowercase characters are mixed For example, the string "Great" comes before the string "fantastic" because all of the uppercase letters come before all of the lowercase letters in Unicode Also, short strings come before longer strings with the same prefix (lexicographically) Therefore "book" comes before "bookcase"
71
71 Lexicographic Ordering continued When ordering strings it is often useful to change them all to upper or lower case letters then order them. There is no problem with mixing of cases then. String strng1 = “Great”; String strng2 = “fantastic”; strng1Upper = strng1.toUpperCase(); strng2Upper = strng2.toUpperCase(); if(strng1Upper.compareTo(strng2Upper)>0) /* this will be true because “GREAT” comes after “FANTASTIC” */
72
72 Comparing Objects The == operator can be applied to objects – it returns true if the two references are aliases of each other. This just means that they are the same object, works just like comparing strings with == The equals method is defined for all objects, but unless we redefine it when we write a class, it has the same semantics as the == operator It has been redefined in the String class to compare the characters in the two strings When you write a class, you can redefine the equals method to return true under whatever conditions are appropriate
73
73 Adding an equal method to the circle class. private int diameter, x, y; private Color color; public boolean equals(Circle par) { return x == par.x && y == par.y && diameter == par.diameter && color == par.color;} Notice that we can refer to the private data of the Circle object par directly. This is a shortcut allowed for methods in a class that refer to objects in the same class. We do not have to say par.getDiameter(), though this would certainly work.

74 Outline The if Statement and Conditions – Oct. 25 Other Conditional Statements – Oct. 25 Comparing Data – Oct. 30 The while Statement – Nov. 8 Iterators – Nov. 8 Other Repetition Statements – Nov. 8, 13 Decisions and Graphics – Nov. 13 More Components (skip)
75
75 Repetition Statements Repetition statements allow us to execute a statement multiple times Often they are referred to as loops Like conditional statements, they are controlled by boolean expressions Java has three kinds of repetition statements: –the while loop –the do loop –the for loop The programmer should choose the right kind of loop for the situation
76
76 The while Statement A while statement has the following syntax: while ( condition ) statement; If the condition is true, the statement is executed and the condition evaluated again If condition is still true, the statement is executed again The statement is executed repeatedly until the condition becomes false
77
77 Logic of a while Loop statement true false condition evaluated
78
78 The while Statement An example of a while statement: int count = 1; while (count <= 5) { System.out.println (count); count++; } If the condition of a while loop is false initially, the statement is never executed Therefore, the body of a while loop will execute zero or more times The above will print the values 1 2 3 4 5 on separate lines.
79
79 The while Statement Let's look at some examples of loop processing A loop can be used to maintain a running sum A sentinel value is a special input value that represents the end of input See Average.java (page 237)Average.java
80
80 int sum = 0, value, count = 0; double average; Scanner scan = new Scanner (System.in); System.out.print ("Enter an integer (0 to quit): "); value = scan.nextInt(); while (value != 0) // sentinel value of 0 to terminate loop { count++; sum += value; System.out.println ("The sum so far is " + sum); System.out.print ("Enter an integer (0 to quit): "); value = scan.nextInt(); } System.out.println (); if (count == 0) System.out.println ("No values were entered."); else { average = (double)sum / count; DecimalFormat fmt = new DecimalFormat ("0.###"); System.out.println ("The average is " + fmt.format(average)); }
81
81 Enter an integer (0 to quit): 89 The sum so far is 89 Enter an integer (0 to quit): 68 The sum so far is 157 Enter an integer (0 to quit): 97 The sum so far is 254 Enter an integer (0 to quit): 73 The sum so far is 327 Enter an integer (0 to quit): 82 The sum so far is 409 Enter an integer (0 to quit): 77 The sum so far is 486 Enter an integer (0 to quit): 0 The average is 81
82
82 General form of input loops that use a sentinel to stop Statement Read next value true false condition evaluated Read first value The last value (sentinel) is read and tested immediately. Thus the loop is exited without processing the sentinel value. This is the desired behavior.
83
83 The while Statement A loop can also be used for input validation, making a program more robust See WinPercentage.java (page 239)WinPercentage.java
84
84 final int NUM_GAMES = 12; int won; double ratio; Scanner scan = new Scanner (System.in); System.out.print ("Enter the number of games won (0 to " + NUM_GAMES + "): "); won = scan.nextInt(); while (won NUM_GAMES) { System.out.print ("Invalid input. Please reenter: "); won = scan.nextInt(); } ratio = (double)won / NUM_GAMES; NumberFormat fmt = NumberFormat.getPercentInstance(); System.out.println (); System.out.println ("Winning percentage: " + fmt.format(ratio));
85
85 WinPercentage.java (page 239) output Enter the number of games won (0 to 12):13 Invalid input. Please reenter: -2 Invalid input. Please reenter: 8 Winning percentage: 67%
86
86 WinPercentageBetter.java The following displays the incorrect input to the user. while (won NUM_GAMES) { System.out.print ("Invalid input,. Please reenter: "); won = scan.nextInt(); } Enter the number of games won (0 to 12): -1 Invalid input,. Please reenter: 13 Invalid input,. Please reenter: 8 Winning percentage: 67%
87
87 Infinite Loops The body of a while loop must eventually execute a statement that makes the condition false If not, it is called an infinite loop, which will execute until the user interrupts the program This is a common logical error You should always double check the logic of a program to ensure that your loops will terminate normally
88
88 Infinite Loops An example of an infinite loop: int count = 1; while (count <= 25) { System.out.println (count); } Count is never incremented so it will remain 1 which is always less than 25 This loop will continue executing until interrupted (Control-C).
89
89 Nested Loops Similar to nested if statements, loops can be nested as well That is, the body of a loop can contain another loop For each iteration of the outer loop, the inner loop iterates completely See PalindromeTester.java (page 243)PalindromeTester.java
90
90 String str, another = "y"; int left, right; Scanner scan = new Scanner (System.in); while (another.equalsIgnoreCase("y")) // allows y or Y { System.out.println ("Enter a potential palindrome:"); str = scan.nextLine(); left = 0; right = str.length() - 1; while (str.charAt(left) == str.charAt(right) && left < right) { left++; right--; } System.out.println(); if (left < right) System.out.println ("That string is NOT a palindrome."); else System.out.println ("That string IS a palindrome."); System.out.println(); System.out.print ("Test another palindrome (y/n)? "); another = scan.nextLine(); }
91
91 PalindromeTester.java (page 243) output Enter a potential palindrome: toot That string IS a palindrome. Test another palindrome (y/n)? y Enter a potential palindrome: tool That string is NOT a palindrome. Test another palindrome (y/n)? y Enter a potential palindrome: a toyota That string is NOT a palindrome. Test another palindrome (y/n)? n

92 PalindromeTester.java (page 243) How does the program work? Use “toot” as an example. while (str.charAt(left) == str.charAt(right) && left < right) toot left = 0, right = 3, ‘t’ ==‘t’ && 0 < 3: true toot left = 1, right = 2, ‘o’ ==‘o’ && 1 < 2: true toot left = 2, right = 1, ‘o’ ==‘o’ && 2 < 1: false // exit loop if (left < right) 2 < 1: false // execute the else part of the if else System.out.println ("That string IS a palindrome."); What happens if the input string is “atoyota”? Ans: atoyota eventually left = 3, right = 3: left < right: false exit loop
93
93 Nested Loops How many times will the string "Here" be printed? count1 = 1; while (count1 <= 10) { count2 = 1; while (count2 <= 20) { System.out.println ("Here"); count2++; } count1++; } Ans: 10 * 20 = 200

95 Iterators An iterator is an object that allows you to process a collection of items one at a time It lets you step through each item in turn and process it as needed An iterator object has a hasNext method that returns true if there is at least one more item to process The next method returns the next item Iterator objects are defined using the Iterator interface, which is discussed further in Chapter 6
96
96 Iterators Several classes in the Java standard class library are iterators The Scanner class is an iterator –the hasNext method returns true if there is more data to be scanned –the next method returns the next scanned token as a string The Scanner class also has variations on the hasNext method for specific data types (such as hasNextInt )
97
97 Iterators The fact that a Scanner is an iterator is particularly helpful when reading input from a file Suppose we wanted to read and process a list of URLs stored in a file One scanner can be set up to read each line of the input until the end of the file is encountered Another scanner can be set up for each URL to process each part of the path See URLDissector.java (page 247)URLDissector.java
98
98 File input We can input information from a file by importing java.io.* The following program refers to a file named urls.inp. It associates this with a scanner. The program associates a new scanner with each line in the input file. (Note: Much the same thing could be cone with the String methods but scanner works quite well.)

Because the program might run into an error it contains a throws clause. This says that some other module above this one should handle the error. In our case there is no other module so an execution tike error occurs.
99
99 public static void main (String[] args) throws IOException { String url; Scanner fileScan, urlScan; fileScan = new Scanner (new File("urls.inp")); // Read and process each line of the file while (fileScan.hasNext()) { url = fileScan.nextLine(); System.out.println ("URL: " + url); urlScan = new Scanner (url); urlScan.useDelimiter("/"); // Print each part of the url while (urlScan.hasNext()) System.out.println (" " + urlScan.next()); System.out.println(); } }

102 The do Statement A do statement has the following syntax: do { statement; } while ( condition ) The statement is executed once initially, and then the condition is evaluated The statement is executed repeatedly until the condition becomes false
103
103 Logic of a do Loop true condition evaluated statement false
104
104 The do Statement An example of a do loop: The body of a do loop executes at least once See ReverseNumber.java (page 251) Welty used to give this on tests.ReverseNumber.java int count = 0; do { count++; System.out.println (count); } while (count < 5); Output: 1 2 3 4 5 0n separate lines
105
105 ReverseNumber.javaReverseNumber.java (page 251) public static void main (String[] args) { int number, lastDigit, reverse = 0; Scanner scan = new Scanner (System.in); System.out.print ("Enter a positive integer: "); number = scan.nextInt(); do { lastDigit = number % 10; reverse = (reverse * 10) + lastDigit; number = number / 10; } while (number > 0); System.out.println ("That number reversed is " + reverse); }
106
106 do { lastDigit = number % 10; reverse = (reverse * 10) + lastDigit; number = number / 10; } while (number > 0); lastDigit = 2 reverse = 2 number = 485 lastDigit = 5 reverse = 25 number = 48 lastDigit = 8 reverse = 258 number = 4 lastDigit = 4 reverse = 2584 number = 0 Exit loop Assume: number = 4852, reverse = 0
107
107 Comparing while and do statement true false condition evaluated The while Loop (pretest) true condition evaluated statement false The do Loop (post test)
108
108 The for Statement A for statement has the following syntax: for ( initialization ; condition ; increment ) statement; The initialization is executed once before the loop begins The statement is executed until the condition becomes false The increment portion is executed at the end of each iteration
109
109 Logic of a for loop statement true condition evaluated false increment initialization
110
110 The for Statement A for loop is functionally equivalent to the following while loop structure: initialization; while ( condition ) { statement; increment; }
111
111 The for Statement An example of a for loop: for (int count=1; count <= 5; count++) System.out.println (count); The initialization section can be used to declare a variable Like a while loop, the condition of a for loop is tested prior to executing the loop body. It is a pretest loop. Therefore, the body of a for loop will execute zero or more times
112
112 The for Statement The increment section can perform any calculation A for loop is well suited for executing statements a specific number of times that can be calculated or determined in advance See Multiples.java (page 255)Multiples.java See Stars.java (page 257)Stars.java for (int num=20; num > 0; num -= 5) System.out.println (num); Q: How many times will this loop execute?Ans: 5
113
113 public static void main (String[] args) { final int PER_LINE = 5; int value, limit, mult, count = 0; Scanner scan = new Scanner (System.in); System.out.print ("Enter a positive value: "); value = scan.nextInt(); System.out.print ("Enter an upper limit: "); limit = scan.nextInt(); System.out.println (); System.out.println ("The multiples of " + value + " between " + value + " and " + limit + " (inclusive) are:"); for (mult = value; mult <= limit; mult += value) { System.out.print (mult + "\t"); // Print a specific number of values per line of output count++; if (count % PER_LINE == 0) System.out.println(); } }
114
114 Enter a positive value: 4 Enter an upper limit: 90 The multiples of 4 between 4 and 90 (inclusive) are: 4 8121620 24 28323640 44 48525660 64 68727680 Multiples.javaMultiples.java (page 255) output

115 Stars.javaStars.java (page 257) public class Stars { // Prints a triangle shape using asterisks (stars) public static void main (String[] args) { final int MAX_ROWS = 10; for (int row = 1; row <= MAX_ROWS; row++) { for (int star = 1; star <= row; star++) System.out.print ("*"); System.out.println(); } }}
116
116 Stars.javaStars.java (page 257) output * ** *** **** ***** ****** ******* ******** ********* ********** row = 1 row = 2 row = 3 row = 4 row = 5 row = 6 row = 7 row = 8 row = 9 row = 10
117
117 The for Statement The following are rarely used in beginning programs and even in advanced programs. Can be useful but only occasionally. Each expression in the header of a for loop is optional If the initialization is left out, no initialization is performed If the condition is left out, it is always considered to be true, and therefore creates an infinite loop If the increment is left out, no increment operation is performed
118
118 Iterators and for Loops This seems to be too advanced an idea at this time. Recall that an iterator is an object that allows you to process each item in a collection A variant of the for loop simplifies the repetitive processing the items For example, if BookList is an iterator that manages Book objects, the following loop will print each book: for (Book myBook : BookList) System.out.println (myBook);
119
119 Iterators and for Loops This seems to be too advanced an idea at this time. This style of for loop can be read "for each Book in BookList, …" Therefore the iterator version of the for loop is sometimes referred to as the foreach loop It eliminates the need to call the hasNext and next methods explicitly It also will be helpful when processing arrays, which are discussed in Chapter 7
