Study Notes
Decision Making using If
- The if statement allows conditional execution of a statement block based on a test expression.
- If the test expression is true, the subsequent statement block executes; otherwise, it is skipped.
- Syntax example:
if (test expression) { statement block; } statement-x;
If-Else Statement
- The if-else statement provides an alternative action if the initial condition is false.
- Syntax format:
if (test expression) { statement block1; } else { statement block2; } statement-x;
Nested If-Else Statements
- Allows multiple conditional checks using if-else constructs.
- Syntax includes a nested if statement within an else clause:
if (condition1) { if (condition2) { statement block1; } else { statement block2; } } else { statement block3; } statement-x;
Switch Case
- The switch statement simplifies situations with multiple choices based on a single expression.
- Each case corresponds to a value from the expression, followed by a block of code to execute.
- Syntax example:
switch (expression) { case value-1: block-1; break; default: default block; break; } statement-x;
Ternary Operator
- A compact form of if-else statement using the syntax:
condition ? expression1 : expression2;
- Evaluates the test condition; executes expression1 if true, otherwise expression2.
Goto Statement
- The goto statement provides a way to jump to a labeled statement, useful for escaping nested loops or for error handling.
- Syntax requires a label followed by a colon, which is a unique identifier within a function scope.
- Labels can be reused in different functions but cannot cross function boundaries.
General Remarks
- Overuse of goto is discouraged, as it can lead to unclear flow of control within programs.
- Understanding the structure and purpose of each control construct is crucial for effective programming.
