Study Notes
Control Structures
- Programs use control structures to determine the order instructions are executed.
- Control statements (selection, repetition, branching) manage program flow.
- Java supports selection, repetition, and branching.
Selection (Agarwal & Bansal, 2023)
- Selection statements control program flow based on comparison results.
ifstatement: Evaluates a boolean expression; executes a block of statements if true.- Syntax:
if (boolean-expression) { statements; } - Example:
int a=16; if (a%2==0) { System.out.println("Even"); }
- Syntax:
if-elsestatement: Executes one block if the condition is true and another if false.- Syntax:
if (boolean-expression) { statements; } else { statements; } - Example:
if (aNum1 > aNum2) { aMax = aNum1; } else { aMax = aNum2; }
- Syntax:
switchstatement: Selects code based on a variable's value.- Syntax:
switch (variable-name) { case exprsn1: statements; break; case exprsn2 : statement; break; default: statement; } - It works with byte, short, char, or int types only.
breakexits the switch.defaulthandles unmatched cases.
- Syntax:
Repetition (Agarwal & Bansal, 2023)
-
Repetition statements loop based on conditions.
-
whileloop: Executes as long as condition is true.- Syntax:
while (boolean-expression) { statement; }
- Syntax:
-
do-whileloop: Executes at least once, then repeats while condition is true.- Syntax:
do { statement;} while(expression);
- Syntax:
-
forloop: Executes a set number of times (has initializer, condition, increment).- Syntax:
for (initialization; test; increment) { statement; }
- Syntax:
Branching (Agarwal & Bansal, 2023)
- Branching statements alter program execution flow.
break: Exits a loop or switch statement.break;,break label;orbreakswitch
continue: Skips the current iteration of a loop.return: Exits a method and returns a value (or nothing if void).return values;, orreturn;orreturn expression;
