What About Ifs

Introduction
Conditional statements, such as 'if' statements, are fundamental to controlling the flow of a
program. They allow the program to make decisions and execute specific blocks of code
based on certain conditions. Understanding how to use 'if' statements effectively is essential
for implementing logic in programming.

Discussion of the Topic


An 'if' statement evaluates a condition and executes a block of code if the condition is true. If
the condition is false, the program can execute alternative code using 'else if' or 'else'
statements. This conditional logic is crucial for decision-making processes, error handling,
and dynamic responses within applications. Mastering 'if' statements enables programmers
to write flexible and robust programs that can handle various scenarios and inputs.

Sample Program Creation Using Visual Studio Code


To illustrate the use of 'if' statements, consider the following C++ program:

1. Open Visual Studio Code.


2. Create a new file named `if_example.cpp`.
3. Write the following C++ program:

```cpp
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main() {
int score;
cout << "Enter your score: ";
cin >> score;

if (score >= 90) {


cout << "Grade: A" << endl;
} else if (score >= 80) {
cout << "Grade: B" << endl;
} else if (score >= 70) {
cout << "Grade: C" << endl;
} else if (score >= 60) {
cout << "Grade: D" << endl;
} else {
cout << "Grade: F" << endl;
}
return 0;
}
```
4. Save and run the program to see how 'if' statements are used to determine the grade
based on the score.
