Decision Making Statements

For BCA 1st Year Students


Introduction
• Decision-making statements allow programs
to take different paths based on conditions.
• Commonly used in programming for flow
control.
Types of Decision-Making
Statements
• 1. if Statement
• 2. if-else Statement
• 3. if-else-if Ladder
• 4. Nested if
• 5. switch Statement
if Statement
• Syntax:
• if (condition) {
• // Code to execute if condition is true
• }
Example: if Statement
• if (age > 18) {
• printf("You are eligible to vote.");
• }
if-else Statement
• Syntax:
• if (condition) {
• // Code if condition is true
• } else {
• // Code if condition is false
• }
Example: if-else Statement
• if (marks >= 50) {
• printf("You passed the exam.");
• } else {
• printf("You failed the exam.");
• }
if-else-if Ladder
• Syntax:
• if (condition1) {
• // Code for condition1
• } else if (condition2) {
• // Code for condition2
• } else {
• // Code if none of the conditions are true
• }
Nested if
• Syntax:
• if (condition1) {
• if (condition2) {
• // Code if both conditions are true
• }
• }
switch Statement
• Syntax:
• switch(expression) {
• case value1:
• // Code for value1
• break;
• case value2:
• // Code for value2
• break;
• default:
Example: switch Statement
• switch(day) {
• case 1:
• printf("Monday");
• break;
• case 2:
• printf("Tuesday");
• break;
• default:
• printf("Invalid day");
Importance
• 1. Enables dynamic behavior in programs.
• 2. Helps in implementing logic based on
conditions.
• 3. Enhances the interactivity of software.
Common Errors and Tips
• 1. Missing curly braces for multi-line
statements.
• 2. Using = instead of == for comparisons.
• 3. Always handle default cases in switch
statements.
Real-World Applications
• 1. Validating user inputs in applications.
• 2. Implementing game logic.
• 3. Dynamic UI adjustments based on user
actions.
Conclusion
• Decision-making statements are fundamental
in programming. They allow software to
behave intelligently by responding to various
conditions.
