Lab # 10: Decision Making Statement SSUET/QR/114

LAB # 10
DECISION MAKING STATEMENT
OBJECTIVE

To get familiar with the concept of conditional statement for simple decision making.

THEORY

Decision making statements in programming languages decides the direction of flow of


program execution.

The if…elif…else statement is used in Python for decision making.

The if Statement

Like most languages, python uses the keyword if to implement the decision control
instruction. It is used to decide whether a certain statement or block of statements will
be executed or not i.e if a certain condition is true then a block of statement is executed
otherwise not. The general form of if statement looks like this:

Syntax:
if condition:
# Statements to
execute if # condition
is true

As a general rule, we express a condition using python’s ‘relational’ operators.


The relational operators allow us to compare two values to see whether they are equal to
each other, unequal, or whether one is greater than the other. Here is how they look and
how they are evaluated in python.

Lab # 10: Decision Making Statement SSUET/QR/114

This expression Is true if


x==y x is equal to y
x!=y x is not equal to y
x<y x is less than y
x>y x is greater than y
x<=y x is less than or equal to y
x>=y x is greater than or equal to y

Example:

# python program to illustrate If statement


i = 10
if (i > 15):
print (i, "is greater than 15")
print ("I am not greater")

Output:

>>> %Run task1.py


I am not greater
>>>

The if-else Statement

We can use the else statement with if statement to execute a block of code when
thecondition is false.

Syntax
if (condition):
# Executes this
block if # condition
is true
else:
# Executes this
block if # condition
is false

Example:

# python program to illustrate If else statement


i = 20;
if (i < 15):
print (i,“is smaller than 15")
print ("i'm in if Block")
else:
print (i,"is greater than 15")
print ("i'm in else Block")
print ("i'm not in if and not in else Block")
Output:

>>> %Run task2.py


20 is greater than 15
i'm in else Block
i'm not in if and not in else Block
>>>

The if-elif-else Statement

The elif is short for else if. It allows us to check for multiple expressions.
If the condition for if is False, it checks the condition of the next elif block and so on.
If all the conditions are False, body of else is executed.
Syntax
if
(conditi
on):
stateme
nt
elif
(conditio
n):
statement
.
.
else:
statement

Example:

# Python program to illustrate if-elif-else


i = 30
if (i == 10):
print ("i is 10")
elif (i == 20):
print ("i is 20")
elif (i == 30):
print ("i is 30")
else:
print ("i is not present")
Output:

>>> %Run task3.py


i is 30
>>>

Lab Tasks:

1. Any integer is input through the keyboard. Write a program to find out whether
it isan odd number or even number.

2. Write a program that asks for years of service and qualification from the user
andcalculates the salary as per the following table:

Years of Service Qualifications Salary


>= 10 Masters 150,000
>= 10 Bachelors 100,000
< 10 Masters 100,000
< 10 Bachelors 70,000

3. Write an if-elif-else chain that determines a person’s stage of life, take input
value for the variable age, and then apply these conditions:

 If the person is less than 2 years old, print a message that the person is a baby.
 If the person is at least 2 years old but less than 4, print a message that the
person is atoddler.
 If the person is at least 4 years old but less than 13, print a message that the
person is akid.
 If the person is at least 13 years old but less than 20, print a message that
the person isa teenager.
 If the person is at least 20 years old but less than 65, print a message that
the person isan adult.
 If the person is age 65 or older, print a message that the person is an elder.
