Study Notes

Course Requirements

The collaborative learning exercise and laboratory report must be submitted on or before the specified date.
Timeliness accounts for 10% of the total grade.

Course Materials

Required readings: Visual Basic and Access by Jemma Development Group, Visual Basic Programming Essentials by iBook Development Group, and online resources.

Conditional Statements

Conditional statements analyze and choose the direction of a program's flow based on certain parameters or conditions.
Relational and logical operators are used in conditional statements, resulting in true or false outcomes.
Examples of conditional statements:
- If condition Then statements
- If condition Then statements End If
- If condition Then statements Else statements End If

If…Then…Else…End If Decision Statement

The If…Then…Else…End If selection structure allows the programmer to specify different actions for true and false conditions.
Syntax: If condition Then statements Else statements End If.
Example: If Balance – Check < 0 Then ... Else Balance = Balance – Check End If.

Nested If…Then…Else…End If Selection Structure

Nested If structures test for multiple cases by placing If…Then…Else structures inside If…Then…Else structures.
It's essential to consider all viable possibilities in the If/Else/End If structure.

Sample Program

Create a temperature conversion application with multiple options and input fields, using key trapping to limit data input.
