Java Decision Making
1) If statement
2) if else
3) else If
4) switchTo
1) The basic syntax of if statement is:
Syntax:
if(test_expression)
{
statement1;
statement2;...
Example of a Java Program to Demonstrate If statements :
public class Sample
public static void main(String args[]){
int a=30, b=20;
if(a>b)
{
System.out.println("a is greater");
2) The basic format of if else statement is:
Syntax:
if(test_expression)
{
//execute your code
}
else
{
//execute your code
}
Example of a Java Program to Demonstrate If else statements
public class Sample
public static void main(String args[])
int a = 30, b = 80;
if (b > a)
{
System.out.println("b is greater");
}
else
{
System.out.println("a is greater");
}
3) The basic format of else if statement is:
Syntax:
if(test_expression)
{
//execute your code
}
else if(test_expression n)
{
//execute your code
}
else
{
//execute your code
}
Example of a Java Program to Demonstrate else If statements
public class Sample {
public static void main(String args[]) {
int a = 30, b = 30;
if (b > a)
{
System.out.println("b is greater");
}
else if(a >b){
System.out.println("a is greater");
}
else {
System.out.println("Both are equal");
}
}
}
4) The basic format of switch statement is:
Syntax:
Switch (variable)
{
Case 1:
//execute your code
break;
Case 2:
//execute your code
break;
Case 3:
//execute your code
break;
Default:
//execute your code
break;
}
Example of a Java Program to Demonstrate Switch Statement
public class Sample
public static void main(String args[])
{
int a = 5;
switch (a)
{
case 1:
System.out.println("You chose One");
break;
case 2:
System.out.println("You chose Two");
break;
case 3:
System.out.println("You chose Three");
break;
case 4:
System.out.println("You chose Four");
break;
case 5:
System.out.println("You chose Five");
break;
default:
System.out.println("Invalid Choice. Enter a no between 1 and 5");
break;
}
}
}
