    Study Notes

    Java If-Else Selection Statements

    • The text provides examples of Java if-else selection statements and their syntax.
    • It explains the operator precedence in Java, including the order in which operations are evaluated.
    • The text introduces a program, PassFail1, and identifies a semantic error in the code.
    • It provides a solution to the semantic error by correcting the boolean expression.
    • It presents an exercise to write a program that inputs two values from the user and prints out the larger of the two.
    • The program uses the Java if-else selection statement to compare the input values.
    • An example of a one-way selection statement is given, which only has a true branch and no else part.
    • The semantics of the if statement are explained, emphasizing that the statement is executed if the boolean expression is true.
    • Compound statements are discussed, highlighting the need for curly brackets if either branch of an if-else contains more than one statement.
    • The text provides examples of compound statements and emphasizes the importance of layout style for clarity.
    • It introduces nested selection statements, where the branches of an if statement can be other if statements.
    • An algorithm and Java code for grading based on exam marks are presented, emphasizing the importance of clear nesting layout and indentation guidelines.
