Introduction to Programming

(C++)

Gliceria S. Tan
Instructor
Session 9 Topics

➢ Control Structures
➢ Decision Structures

GLICERIA S. TAN, MIS COMPUTER PROGRAMMING 1


INSTRUCTOR
Control Structures

A control structure is a logical design that


controls the order in which a set of
statements executes.

The type of control structure that we have


used so far in programming is the sequence
structure where the statements execute
from top to bottom.

INSTRUCTOR
Decision Structure

We now move on from the simple sequence


structure to the decision structure.

The decision structure allows us to select


and execute specific blocks of code while
skipping other sections. (A block is a group
of statements enclosed in braces {}).

INSTRUCTOR
The if statement

Syntax:
if (expression)
statement;
or
if (expression) {
statement;
Block or statement block

}
GLICERIA S. TAN, MIS COMPUTER PROGRAMMING 1
INSTRUCTOR
For example:
int grade = 68;
if( grade > 60 )
cout<<"Congratulations!";
or
int grade = 68;
if( grade > 60 ) {
cout<<"Congratulations! “<<endl;
cout<<"You passed!";
}
GLICERIA S. TAN, MIS COMPUTER PROGRAMMING 1
INSTRUCTOR
The if-else statement

Syntax:
if(expression)
statement1;
else
statement2;

GLICERIA S. TAN, MIS COMPUTER PROGRAMMING 1


INSTRUCTOR
For example:
int grade = 68;
if( grade > 60 )
cout<<"Congratulations!";
else
cout<<"Sorry you failed";
or
int grade = 68;
if( grade > 60 ){
cout<<"Congratulations!“<<endl;
cout<<"You passed!";
}
else
cout<<"Sorry you failed";

INSTRUCTOR
The if-else-if statement
Syntax:
if(expression)
statement;
else if(expression)
statement;
else if(expression)
statement;
.
.
.
else
statement;
GLICERIA S. TAN, MIS COMPUTER PROGRAMMING 1
INSTRUCTOR
For example:
int grade = 92;
if( grade >= 90 )
cout<<"Excellent!";
else if( grade<90 && grade>=80 )
cout<<"Good job!";
else if( grade<80 && grade>=60 )
cout<<"Study harder!";
else
cout<<"Sorry, you failed.";

INSTRUCTOR
The nested if

A nested if is an if statement that is the


object of either an if or else.
Example:
if(x)
if(y)
cout<<“1”;
else
cout<<“2”;

GLICERIA S. TAN, MIS COMPUTER PROGRAMMING 1


INSTRUCTOR
In C++, else is linked to the closest preceding if
that does not already have an else associated
with it. In this case, else is associated with if(y).
if(x)
if(y)
cout<<“1”;
else
cout<<“2”;

GLICERIA S. TAN, MIS COMPUTER PROGRAMMING 1


INSTRUCTOR
To make else associate with if(x) you must use
curly braces to override its normal association, as
shown below:

if(x) {
if (y)
cout<<“1”;
}
else
cout<<“2”;

INSTRUCTOR
Recall this sample problem:

Draw a flowchart to enter the age of a person. If


the person is 18 years old or above display
“QUALIFIED”, otherwise display “UNDERAGE”.

GLICERIA S. TAN, MIS COMPUTER PROGRAMMING 1


INSTRUCTOR
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main(){
int age;
cout<<“Enter a person’s age: “;
cin>>age;
if(age>=18)
cout<<“QUALIFIED”;
else
cout<<“UNDERAGE”;
}

INSTRUCTOR
Recall this sample problem:

Draw a flowchart to enter two numbers. If the first


number is greater than the second number display
their difference, otherwise display their sum.

GLICERIA S. TAN, MIS COMPUTER PROGRAMMING 1


INSTRUCTOR
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main(){
int a, b, sum, dif;
cout<<“Enter two numbers: “;
cin>>a>>b;
if ( a > b ) {
dif = a - b;
cout<<“The difference is ”<<dif;
}
else {
sum = a + b;
cout<<“The sum is ”<<sum;
}
}

GLICERIA S. TAN, MIS COMPUTER PROGRAMMING 1


INSTRUCTOR
The switch statement
Syntax:
switch( expression ){
case value1:
statement/s
break;
case value2:
statement/s
break;
.
.
.
default: statement/s
}
GLICERIA S. TAN, MIS COMPUTER PROGRAMMING 1
INSTRUCTOR
The value of the switch expression is compared
with the value of each case. When a match is
found, the statement or statements are executed
until the break statement is reached. The value of
the expression can either be an integer or a
character.

The break statement is used to terminate a case in


the switch statement.

The default statement is executed if no match is


found. This statement is optional and, if not
present, no action takes place if all matches fail.
GLICERIA S. TAN, MIS COMPUTER PROGRAMMING 1
INSTRUCTOR
For example:
int number = 3;
switch(number){
case 1:
cout<<“One";
break;
case 2:
cout<<“Two";
break;
case 3:
cout<<“Three";
break;
default:
cout<<"Sorry, wrong number.";
}

INSTRUCTOR
Sample problem:
Draw a flowchart and write a program to accept a
student’s year-entry number and display its equivalent high
school level. Here are the criteria:

Year-entry Number High School Level


1 Freshman
2 Sophomore
3 Junior
4 Senior
Other entry no. Out-of-school

GLICERIA S. TAN, MIS COMPUTER PROGRAMMING 1


INSTRUCTOR
START

#include <iostream> INPUT year


main(){
int year; T
year==1 OUTPUT “Freshman”
cout<<“Enter the year entry number: “; F
cin>>year; year==2
T
OUTPUT “Sophomore”
switch(year) {
F
case 1: cout<<“Freshman”; break; T
year==3 OUTPUT “Junior”
case 2: cout<<“Sophomore”; break;
case 3: cout<< “Junior”; break; F
T
case 4: cout<< “Senior”; break; year==4 OUTPUT “Senior”
default: cout<< “Out-of-school”; F
} OUTPUT “Out-of-school”
}
