    The document discusses various decision making structures in computer programming such as if-then, if-then-else, and select case statements. It provides examples of how to use these statements to evaluate conditions and execute different code blocks based on whether the conditions are true or false. Nested conditional statements are also covered, allowing conditions to be checked at multiple levels of a program.

    DECISION MAKING
    Decision Making
    Decision making structures require that the programmer specify one or
    more conditions to be evaluated or tested by the program, along with a
    statement or statements to be executed if the condition is determined to be
    true, and optionally, other statements to be executed if the condition is
    determined to be false.
    Decision Making
    Following is the general form of a
    typical decision making structure found
    in most of the programming languages
    Types of decision making statements
    Statement Description
    If ... Then statement An If...Then statement consists of a boolean expression followed by one or
    more statements.
    If...Then...Else statement An If...Then statement can be followed by an optional Else statement, which
    executes when the boolean expression is false.
    nested If statements You can use one If or Else if statement inside another If or Else
    if statement(s).
    Select Case statement A Select Case statement allows a variable to be tested for equality against a
    list of values.
    nested Select Case statements You can use one select case statement inside another select
    case statement(s).
    If...Then Statement
    It is the simplest form of control statement,
    frequently used in decision making and
    changing the control flow of the program
    execution. Syntax for if-then statement is:
    If condition Then
    [Statement(s)]
    End If
    Where, condition is a Boolean or relational condition and
    Statement(s) is a simple or compound statement. Example of
    an If-Then statement is:
    Example
    Module decisions
    Sub Main()
    'local variable definition
    Dim a As Integer = 10
    ' check the boolean condition using if statement
    If (a < 20) Then
    ' if condition is true then print the following
    Console.WriteLine("a is less than 20")
    End If
    Console.WriteLine("value of a is : {0}", a)
    Console.ReadLine()
    End Sub
    End Module
    If...Then...Else Statement
    An If statement can be followed by an
    optional Else statement, which executes when
    the Boolean expression is false.
    If(boolean_expression)Then
    'statement(s) will execute if the Boolean
    expression is true
    Else
    'statement(s) will execute if the Boolean
    expression is false
    End If
    Example
    Module decisions
    Sub Main()
    Dim a As Integer = 100 'local variable definition '
    ' check the boolean condition using if statement
    If (a < 20) Then ' if condition is true then print the following
    Console.WriteLine("a is less than 20")
    Else ' if condition is false then print the following
    Console.WriteLine("a is not less than 20")
    End If
    Console.WriteLine("value of a is : {0}", a)
    Console.ReadLine()
    End Sub
    End Module
    The If...Else If...Else Statement
    An If statement can be followed by an optional Else if...Else statement,
    which is very useful to test various conditions using single If...Else If
    statement.
    When using If... Else If... Else statements, there are few points to keep in
    mind.
    An If can have zero or one Else's and it must come after an Else If's.
    An If can have zero to many Else If's and they must come before the
    Else.
    Once an Else if succeeds, none of the remaining Else If's or Else's will
    be tested.
    Example
    Module decisions
    Sub Main()
    'local variable definition ' ElseIf (a = 30) Then
    Dim a As Integer = 100 'if else if condition is true
    ' check the boolean condition ' Console.WriteLine("Value of a is 30")
    If (a = 10) Then Else
    ' if condition is true then print the following ' 'if none of the conditions is true
    Console.WriteLine("Value of a is 10") ' Console.WriteLine("None of the values is matching")
    ElseIf (a = 20) Then End If
    'if else if condition is true ' Console.WriteLine("Exact value of a is: {0}", a)
    Console.WriteLine("Value of a is 20") ' Console.ReadLine()
    End Sub
    End Module
    Select Case Statement
    A Select Case statement allows a variable to be tested for equality against a
    list of values. Each value is called a case, and the variable being switched on
    is checked for each select case.
    Select [ Case ] expression
    [ Case expressionlist
    [ statements ] ]
    [ Case Else
    [ elsestatements ] ]
    End Select
    Select Case Statement
    Where,
    expression: is an expression that must evaluate to any of the elementary data
    type in VB.Net, i.e., Boolean, Byte, Char, Date, Double, Decimal, Integer, Long,
    Object, SByte, Short, Single, String, UInteger, ULong, and UShort.
    Expression list: List of expression clauses representing match values for
    expression. Multiple expression clauses are separated by commas.
    statements: statements following Case that run if the select expression matches
    any clause in expression list.
    Else statements: statements following Case Else that run if the select expression
    does not match any clause in the expression list of any of the Case statements.
    Module decisions
    Sub Main()
    'local variable definition
    Select Case Statement Dim grade As Char
    grade = "B"
    Select grade
    Case "A"
    Console.WriteLine("Excellent!")
    Case "B", "C"
    Console.WriteLine("Well done")
    Case "D"
    Console.WriteLine("You passed")
    Case "F"
    Console.WriteLine("Better try again")
    Case Else
    Console.WriteLine("Invalid grade")
    End Select
    Console.WriteLine("Your grade is {0}", grade)
    Console.ReadLine()
    End Sub
    End Module
    Module decisions
    Nested Select Case Sub Main()
    'local variable definition
    Statement Dim a As Integer = 100
    Dim b As Integer = 200
    It is possible to have a Select a
    Case 100
    select statement as part
    Console.WriteLine("This is part of outer case ")
    of the statement Select Case b
    sequence of an outer Case 200
    select statement. Even if Console.WriteLine("This is part of inner case ")
    the case constants of the End Select
    End Select
    inner and outer select
    Console.WriteLine("Exact value of a is : {0}", a)
    contain common values, Console.WriteLine("Exact value of b is : {0}", b)
    no conflicts will arise. Console.ReadLine()
    End Sub
    End Module
