Program Control Structures The program executes each statement one after another, unless otherwise directed explicitly. The program executes each statement one after another, unless otherwise directed explicitly. Order of execution statement is called “flow of control.” Order of execution statement is called “flow of control.” A program needs only three control structures: A program needs only three control structures: Sequence (default) Sequence (default) Conditional (decision) Conditional (decision) Iteration (loop) Iteration (loop)

Conditional Statements Conditional statement lets you choose which statement to execute next, depending of a boolean condition. Conditional statement lets you choose which statement to execute next, depending of a boolean condition. Conditional Statements Conditional Statements if statement if statement if-else statement if-else statement switch statement switch statement

If Statement if (boolCondition) someStatement; if (boolCondition) someStatement; if (boolCondition) { someStatement1; someStatement2; } if (boolCondition) { someStatement1; someStatement2; } bool Condition someStatement true false

If Statement final int VOTE_AGE = 18; int age; Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in); System.out.println(“How old are you?”); age = scan.nextInt(); If (age >= VOTE_AGE) { System.out.println(“Since you are over “ + VOTE_AGE + “,\nyou can vote.”); }

Relational Operations A condition often uses one of Java's equality operators or relational operators, which all return boolean results : A condition often uses one of Java's equality operators or relational operators, which all return boolean results : equal to ==equal to not equal to !=not equal to less than <less than greater than >greater than less than or equal to <=less than or equal to greater than or equal to >=greater than or equal to Note the difference between the equality operator (==) and the assignment operator (=) Note the difference between the equality operator (==) and the assignment operator (=)

Logical Operators If (5 > 3 && 8 3 && 8 <= 8) System.out.println(“Hi.”); Is (5 > 3 && 8 3 && 8 <= 8) true, or false? Logical operators take boolean expressions Logical operators take boolean expressions ! Logical NOT ! Logical NOT && Logical AND && Logical AND || Logical OR || Logical OR

Logical Operators int num; Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in); System.out.println(“Enter a 2-digit number“); num = scan.nextInt(); if ((num >= 10) && (num < 100)) { System.out.println(“Thnak you.”); }

Your Turn Given: int a = 1; int b = 2; int c = 3; int d = 4; Given: int a = 1; int b = 2; int c = 3; int d = 4; True or False? True or False? 1.a d 2.a d 3.a a + b 4.!(c < d)

Truth Table AB!A A && B A || B TTFTT TFFFT FTTFT FFTFF

Boolean Expressions a > b found!found a > b && !found TT?? TF?? FT?? FF??

Short-circuited Operator If ((a > b) && (c b) && (c < d)) If (a > b) is false, then the whole espression is false. Thus, Java does not evaluate (c b) is false, then the whole espression is false. Thus, Java does not evaluate (c < d). If ((a > b) || (c b) || (c < d)) If (a > b) is true, then the whole expressions is true. Thus, Java does not evaluate (c b) is true, then the whole expressions is true. Thus, Java does not evaluate (c < d).

If-Else Statement if (boolCondition) someStatement; else anotherStatement; if (boolCondition) someStatement; else anotherStatement; if (boolCondition) { someStatement1; someStatement2; } else { anotherStatement1; anotherStatement2; } if (boolCondition) { someStatement1; someStatement2; } else { anotherStatement1; anotherStatement2; } condition evaluated statement1 true false statement2

if –else Statements if (number > 0) System.out.println(number + " is positive.”); else System.out.println(number + " is non-pos.”); if (score >= 70) { grade = "Pass"; System.out.println("You passed the test."); } else { grade = "Fail"; System.out.println("You did not pass “ + “the test.”); }

Example Program CoinFlip.java CoinFlip.java CoinFlip.java Coin.java Coin.java Coin.java

Unmatched Else What is the output from the following example? What is the output from the following example? x = 5; if (x 0) System.out.print("Hi"); else System.out.print("Ho");

Answer Output: none Output: none An else is matched with the nearest if. An else is matched with the nearest if. Same as: Same as: x = 5; if (x 0) System.out.print("Hi"); else System.out.print("Ho");

Q & A Q: How do you associate a nested else with a particular if? Q: How do you associate a nested else with a particular if? A: A: x = 5; if (x 0) System.out.print("Hi"); } else { System.out.print("Ho"); }

Nested if Statement char grade; int score; if (score >= 90) grade = ‘A’; else if (score >= 80) grade = ‘B’; else if (score >= 70) grade = ‘C’; else if (score >= 60) grade = ‘D’; else grade = ‘F’;

Nested If >= 90 score  input >= 80 >= 70 >= 60 grade = ‘A Grade = ‘F’ grade = ‘B’ grade = ‘C’ Grade = ‘D’ T T F F F F T T T

Equivalent if-else-if char grade; int score; if (score >= 90) grade = ‘A’; else if (score >= 80) grade = ‘B’; else if (score >= 70) grade = ‘C’; else if (score >= 60) grade = ‘D’; else grade = ‘F’;

If-else-if >= 90 score  input >= 80 >= 70 >= 60 grade = ‘A Grade = ‘F’ grade = ‘B’ grade = ‘C’ Grade = ‘D’ T T F F F T T T F

Exercises Write a code segment which converts a letter grade into an equivalent numeric grade. I.e., A  4, B  3, C  2, D  1, F  0. Write a code segment which converts a letter grade into an equivalent numeric grade. I.e., A  4, B  3, C  2, D  1, F  0.

switch Statement Use switch statement when: Use switch statement when: Test condition involves matching with several cases Test condition involves matching with several cases Each value matched is an integer value—i.e., byte, short, int, or char (not String) Each value matched is an integer value—i.e., byte, short, int, or char (not String) Note that the switch statement cannot be used to convert a range of numeric scores to letter grades, e.g., 90-100  A, 80-89  B, etc. Why? Note that the switch statement cannot be used to convert a range of numeric scores to letter grades, e.g., 90-100  A, 80-89  B, etc. Why?

switch Statement: Example char grade; int score; … switch (grade){ case 'A': score = 4; break; case 'B': score = 3; break; case 'C': score = 2; break; case 'D': score = 1; break; default: score = 0; }

Comparing Floating Point Numbers Given: int a, b; float x, y; Given: int a, b; float x, y; (a == b) is clear; but (a == b) is clear; but (x == y) should be avoided (x == y) should be avoided The expression may never be true. The expression may never be true. Two floating point numbers are equal only if they have the exact representation Two floating point numbers are equal only if they have the exact representation E.g., 0.3000000 is represented as 0.2999999. E.g., 0.3000000 is represented as 0.2999999.

Comparing Floating Point Numbers (cont.) Instead, use the following expression. final float DELTA = 0.00001; float x, y; … if (abs(a – b) <= DELTA) System.out.println(“close enough.”); Instead, use the following expression. final float DELTA = 0.00001; float x, y; … if (abs(a – b) <= DELTA) System.out.println(“close enough.”);

Comparing Characteres Comparison of characters Comparison of characters Based on Unicode numbers Based on Unicode numbers Called lexicographic order Called lexicographic order Note that numeric digit and alphabetic characters have consecutive Unicode numbers. Note that numeric digit and alphabetic characters have consecutive Unicode numbers. Characters Unicode Values 0 – 9 48 through 57 A – Z 65 through 90 a – z 97 through 122

Comparing Strings Given: String s1, s2; s1 = new String(“Abe”); s2 = new String(“Abe”); Given: String s1, s2; s1 = new String(“Abe”); s2 = new String(“Abe”); (s1 == s2) will return false, because s1 and s2 are essentially memory addresses. (s1 == s2) will return false, because s1 and s2 are essentially memory addresses. Generally speaking, do not use relational operators to compare objects.

Instead, use String mentods: Instead, use String mentods: If(s1.equals(s2)) System.out.println(“s1 == s2”); If(s1.equals(s2)) System.out.println(“s1 == s2”); n = s1.compareWith(s2); n = s1.compareWith(s2); If n is 0, then s1 == s2 If n is -1, then s1 < s2 If n = 1, then s1 > s2

Comparing Strings (cont.) The following expressions are all true. The following expressions are all true. “BOOK” < “book” “BOOK” < “book” “Venice” < “rome” “Venice” < “rome” “America” < “acupuncture” “America” < “acupuncture” “Santa Clara” < “Santa barbara” “Santa Clara” < “Santa barbara” “class” < “classical” “class” < “classical”
