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.
