Decision Structures

This document discusses various decision structures and loops in programming. It covers IF/ELSE statements, nested IF statements, ELSE-IF statements, comparing strings, WHILE loops, FOR loops, DO-WHILE loops, and using random numbers. Examples are provided for each to illustrate their usage and applications in controlling program flow and logic.

DECISION

STRUCTURES
IF STATEMENT

It is decision structure, which is used


to control the program flow based on
some condition. It is used to execute
some statement code block if the
expression is evaluated to true.
Otherwise, it will get skipped.
EXAMPLE FOR IF STRUCTURE
IF-ELSE STATEMENT

IF-ELSE is a conditional statement


that runs a different set of statements
depending on whether an expression
is true or false.
EXAMPLE FOR IF-ELSE STRUCTURE
Nested Decision Structures

A nested if statement is an if statement that's place inside


another, which allows for complex conditions.
EXAMPLE OF NESTED IF
STRUCTURE
ELSE-IF STATEMENTS

Else used also when there are multiple conditional


statements that may all evaluate to true, yet you
want only one if statement's body to execute. You can
use an "else if" statement following an if statement and
its body; that way, if the first statement is true, the
"else if" will be ignored, but if the if statement is
false, it will then check the condition for the else if
statement. If the if statement was true the else
statement will not be checked.
EXAMPLE ELSE-IF STATEMENTS
COMPARING STRINGS

The simplest form of comparting two string for


the same value is using String.Equals method. If
both strings are equal, the method returns true;
else returns false.

if (String.Equals (a,b))
EXAMPLE OF COMPARING STRINGS
String.Compare

String.Compare method compares two strings and


returns an integer value. The return value of the
Compare method can be less than zero, greater than
zero or equals to zero.
EXAMPLE OF String.Compare
CompareTo Method

CompareTo method is an instance method of string


class. It compares a value (either a string or on
object) with a string instance. Return values of this
method are same as the Compare method.
PREVENTING DATA CONVERSION
EXCEPTION

TryParse() is similar to Parse() and used to convert string


type to specified numeric type, however if conversion
fails then instead of throwing exception, it returns a
Boolean value as False.

bool result = Int32.TryParse(string input, out number);


RADIO BUTTONS AND CHECK BOXES

Checkboxes and Radio Buttons are way to offer your


users choices. Radio buttons are used when there is a
list of two or more options that are mutually exclusive
and the user must select exactly one choice.
EXAMPLE OF RADIOBUTTON
SWITCH STATEMENT STRUCTURE

A switch 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 switch case.
EXAMPLE OF SWITCH CASE
LIST BOXES

ListBox control provides a user interface to display a list


of items. Users can select one or more items from the
list. A ListBox may be used to display multiple columns
and these columns may have images and other controls.
EXAMPLE OF LISTBOX
WHILE LOOP

While loop includes a Boolean


expression as a condition which will
return true or false. It executes the code
block, as long as the specified
conditional expression returns true.
EXAMPLE WHILE LOOP
INFINITE LOOPS

Infinite loops are loops that are repeated until the


program is interrupted. It typically occurs when the
programmer made an error in doing the code such as
forgetting to write the test condition to make it false.
FOR LOOP

For loop is a type of loop construct found


in many procedural languages which
repeatedly execute some instructions while
a condition is true.
EXAMPLE OF FOR LOOP
DO-WHILE LOOP

Do-while” loop is used to execute a


block of statements until the
specified expression is false.
EXAMPLE OF DO-WHILE LOOP
Random Numbers

The .Net Framework provides a specific class in


order to generate random numbers. Hence, it is
named as the Random Class. It is a type of
software routine that is commonly used in
applications and cryptographic key generations.
EXAMPLE OF RANDOM NUMBER
