What is the purpose of the 'else if' statement in Java conditional statements?
What is the purpose of the 'else if' statement in Java conditional statements?
- To specify a new condition to test if the first condition is false (correct)
- To specify a block of code to be executed if a specified condition is true
- To specify a block of code to be executed if the same condition is false
- To specify a block of code to be executed based on user input
In the Java program provided, what does the line 'age = input.nextInt();' do?
In the Java program provided, what does the line 'age = input.nextInt();' do?
- Checks the value of the variable 'age'
- Prints the message 'Enter your age'
- Takes input from the user and assigns it to the variable 'age' (correct)
- Performs an arithmetic operation on the variable 'age'

Study Notes
Sequence Control Structure
- Refers to the execution of statements in a linear order, one after another.
- Establishes a basic flow of a program where each line of code runs in the sequence it appears.
Purpose of 'else if' Statement
- Allows for multiple conditions to be evaluated in a conditional statement.
- Provides a way to execute different blocks of code based on varying alternatives, avoiding multiple nested if statements.
Function of 'age = input.nextInt();'
- Reads an integer input from the user via the Scanner object named 'input'.
- Assigns the entered integer value to the variable 'age'.
Purpose of 'import java.util.Scanner;'
- Imports the Scanner class from the java.util package, which enables user input functionalities.
- Allows the program to utilize the Scanner class to read data from various input sources, like keyboard input.
Control Structure for Executing Code Based on Condition
- Utilizes the 'if' statement to specify a block of code that executes when a defined condition evaluates as true.
- This structure is fundamental for decision-making processes in Java programming, enabling dynamic behavior based on user input or program status.
