    Study Notes

    Introduction to Java and Object Oriented Programming

    • Java provides conditional statements to control the flow of code.
    • Conditional statements are fundamental features of Java, providing a smooth flow of program.

    Types of Conditional Statements

    • Decision Making statements:
      • if statement
      • switch statement
    • Loop statements:
      • do while loop
      • while loop
      • for loop
      • for-each loop
    • Jump statements:
      • break statement
      • continue statement

    Decision Making Statements

    • If Statement:
      • Evaluates a condition and executes a block of code if true.
      • Three ways to execute loops in Java.

    Loop Statements

    • For loop:
      • Used to run a block of code for a certain number of times.
      • Syntax: for (initialization; condition; increment/decrement) { code block }
      • Example: Simple for loop, Nested for loop
    • While loop:
      • Used to run a specific code until a certain condition is met.
      • Syntax: while (condition) { code block }
      • Example: While loop
    • Do-while loop:
      • Similar to while loop, but the body of the loop is executed once before the test expression is checked.
      • Syntax: do { code block } while (condition)

    Jump Statements

    • Break statement:
      • Used to terminate the execution of the nearest looping statement or switch statement.
      • Widely used with switch statement, for loop, while loop, do-while loop.
      • Example: Break statement
    • Continue statement:
      • Used to skip the rest of the code inside the loop and move to the next iteration.

    Switch Statement

    • Contains multiple blocks of code called cases and a single case is executed based on the variable being switched.
    • Similar to if-else-if statements.
    • Syntax: switch(expression) { case x: code block break; case y: code block break; default: code block }
    • Example: Switch statement

    Tasks and Examples

    • Task 1: Declare variables and initialize integer variables with values, add them, and check if sum is greater than 20.
    • Task 2: Check if a number is divisible by 5 and 11.
    • Task 3: Check if a number is even or odd.
    • Task 4: Create a simple calculator using switch statement.
    • Task 5: Find the maximum of two numbers using switch statement.
    • Task 6: Print all even numbers between 1 to 100 using for loop.
    • Task 7: Calculate the factorial of a number.
