Reading text
Conditionals and how they are used in Algorithms

A CONDITIONAL is a type of a step in an algorithm where a decision must be made. In this


article, we will focus on two types of CONDITIONALS: IF-THEN-ELSE and AND/OR
conditionals.

IF-THEN-ELSE CONDITIONALS

One of the first things that programmers learn is how to use IF-THEN-ELSE conditionals.
The basic idea is: IF some condition is true THEN do this, ELSE do that.

For example, imagine you have to connect to an online class, and you have two devices: a
computer and a cellphone. You prefer to use the computer, but your computer is
sometimes blocked. So the CONDIIONAL for your situation is: IF the computer works well
THEN connect with the computer, ELSE connect with the cellphone.

Sometimes, you can have complex conditional statements when you have more than two
choices. As humans, make decisions with several options in a very different way than
computers. We have the ability to select one item out of a group of choices, but a
computer program has to make binary decisions, meaning that it can only select between
two things at a time.

Imagine you want to go to a restaurant. You top-favorite is a pizza restaurant, your second
favorite is a hot-dog restaurant, and your third favorite is a burger restaurant. There are
no more restaurants in your town. Your CONDITIONAL for this situation is:

● IF pizza restaurant is open,


o THEN go to pizza restaurant
● IF hot-dog restaurant is open,
o THEN go to hot-dog restaurant
● IF burger restaurant is open,
o THEN go to burger restaurant
● ELSE cook at home
All the options after the one that is selected are completely ignored. For example, if the
pizza restaurant is open, the computer program will ignore hot-dog and burger
restaurants. When writing your program, it is important to think about the priorities.

AND/OR CONDITIONALS

If you want to check multiple conditions, you can use AND/OR statements. Using AND will
cause the program to do something if both conditions are true. Using an OR statement
will do something if one of the conditions is true.

Imagine you want to go to play soccer, but your mother says that you should do
homework and walk the dog first. For this situation, the CONDITIONAL is: IF I finished
homework AND I walked the dog, THEN I go to play soccer, ELSE I stay at home. Now,
imagine a different situation – you want to participate in a school competition in
Mathematics; to participate, you have to study minimum in the 9th grade or you have to
be minimum 15 years old. In this case, the CONDITIONAL is: IF I study in 9th grade or higher
OR I am at least 15 years old, THEN I can participate in Mathematics competition, ELSE I
cannot participate.

WORKSHEET 8.4

EVALUATION

Write a CONDITIONAL for each situation using the programming language you learned
today: IF, THEN, ELSE, AND, OR.

1. Your flight is at 5 pm. You have to be at the airport at least 1 hour before. You get to
the airport on time, you take the flight. You don´t get to the airport on time, you buy a
new ticket.

If You get to the airport 1 hour before or on time, then you take the flight. else, you
buy a new ticket.

2. You want to withdraw 10 000 pesos from the ATM. You have 10 000 or more in your
account; you get the money. You have less than 10 000 in your account, you get
nothing.

if you have 10000 or more in your account then you can withdraw 10.000 else you get
nothing
3. You want to take salsa classes. Salsa classes start at 3 pm. Your university classes finish
before 3 pm, you take salsa classes. Your university classes finish after 3 pm, you don´t
take salsa classes.

if Salsa classes start at 3 pm and Your university classes finish before 3 pm then you
take salsa classes else you don´t take salsa classes.
