Control Statements

Chapter 02
Contol Statements
Flow Control / Control flow: the order in which statements
are executed.
- It is typically sequential but may be diverted to other paths
by branch statement.
- C++ provides different control statements
1. Conditional Statement
2. Looping / Iteration statement
3. Other statements
Conditional Statements
1. If Statement
- execute statements depending on a condition being staisfied.
- syntax: if ( expression / condition )
statement;
This statement executes if and only if the
expression inside the parenthesis results
to true / condition becomes true

- the syntax above is used if you want to execute single statememt for
the condition.
- If you want to execute more than 1 statement when
condition/ expression is true, use the syntax below:
if (expression)
{
statement1; you surround your statements
with open and close curly
statement2; bracket {} (block statement
}
- If you want to execute statement if the condition is not true:
syntax: if (expression)
statement1; statement1 wil be executed if
the expression/condition is true
else
statement2;

statement2 wil be executed if


the expression/condition is false
If you are executing multiple statements:
syntax: if (expression)
{
statement1;
statement2;
}
else
{
statement3;
statement4;
}
- If statements can be nested ( if statements inside another
statement)
syntax: if (condition)
{
statement1;...
if (sondition)
{
statement2; ...
}
}
It is good practice to use curly bracket even if you execute one
statement.
2. Switch statement
- It provides a way of choosing between sets of alternative
based on expression.
syntax: switch ( expression)
{
case label1:
expression is evaluated and
statement;
outcome is compared to each
break;
labels as they appear in order until
case label2:
a match is found.
statement;
break; ...
default: Default case is executed if none of
statement; the case labels match the
break; expression.
}
If statement vs Switch Statement
- If-statement verifies relational expression as well as logical
expression.
- Switch Statement tests for equality
