Selection Structures (if & switch statements) (CS 1123)

Selection Structures True Do Step A Condition False Do Step B

• In C++, there are three types of selection statements: • one-way • two-way • multi-way

One-Way Decisions • One-way decisions either do some particular thing or do nothing at all. The decision is based on a logical expression which either evaluates to true or false, a value of 1 or a value of 0, respectively. • Recall that a logical expression always evaluate to a value of true or false; in C++, a nonzero value is always true, and a value of zero is always false. • If the logical expression is evaluated to true, then the corresponding statement is executed; if the logical expression evaluates to false, control goes to the next executable statement.

If statement (One Way) - Syntax of if with single-statement body

If statement (One Way) - Syntax of if with multiple-statements body

Examples…. (if, one-way) • Examples…. • Write a program to calculate tax collection according to the following formula: – 5% Tax, if salary is above 50000 – 3% Tax , if salary is between 30000 and 50000 – 2% Tax, is salary is between less than 30000 In the end the program should print the calculated tax.

Two way decisions • Two-way decisions either do one particular thing or do another. Similar to one-way decisions, the decision is based on a logical expression.

If statement (Two-Way) - Syntax of if with single-statement body Executed when condition is true Executed when condition is false

If statement (Two-Way) - Syntax of if with single-statement body Executed when condition is true Executed when condition is false

• • • Example 1: int c = 10; if (c >= 0) { cout << "c is a positive or neutral integer" << endl; } else { cout << "c is a negative integer" << endl; }

• • • Example 2: int num = 100; if (num % 2 == 0) { cout << "num is an even integer" << endl; } else { cout << "num is an odd integer" << endl; } Practical

Examples…. (if, Two-way) Write a program that squares a number (entered by user), if it is between 10 and 100. For all other numbers, an Error message is shown and program terminates.

Examples…. (if, Two-way) 2. Write a payroll program using following rules: – Hourly rate: 100 (rupees) – If an employee works 40 hours or fewer, he is paid regular pay (hourly rate * number of hours worked). – If employees work more than 40 hours, then he WILL receive two times his hourly rate for those hours over 40, in addition to his regular pay for the first 40.

• • • if (weekly. Hours <= 40) { earnings = hourly. Rate * weekly. Hours; } else { off. Hours = weekly. Hours - 40; regpay = 40 * hourly. Rate; earnings = regpay + off. Hours * hourly. Rate * 2; }

Multi-Way Decisions • • Multi-way decisions are used to evaluate a logical expression that could have several possible values. “if / else if” statements are often used to choose between ranges of values • • • • • if ( logical expression ) { stmt. T 1; } else if ( logical expression ) { stmt. T 2; } else if ( logical expression ) { stmt. T 3; } else if ( logical expression ) { stmt. TN; } else

1 else if statement

The form of a multi-way decision using “nested if” : • Purpose: To test more than one factors before we write our executable code • By nesting if structures, we write ONE COMPLETE if structure inside a SINGLE BRANCH of a parent if structure

Nested “if. . . else” Statements if (marks>90) { cout<<“n. You got A grade”; if(n. Available_scholorships>0) { cout<<“n. You got scholorship too”; tution_fee_due = 0; } } else { if (marks>=50) cout<<“n. You passed the course”; else cout<<“n. You failed the course”; }

Matching the else

Matching the “else” #include <iostream> using namespace std; int main() { int a, b, c; cout<<“Enter three numbers, a, b, and c: n”; cin >> a >> b >> c; if( a==b )) { if( b==c ) cout << << “a, b, b, andc c samen”; cout areare thethe samen”; } else cout << and “b and c are differentn”; << “a b are differentn”; cout<< “a and b are differentn”; return 0; }

The else. . . if Construction if (marks>80) { cout<<“n You } else if (marks>70) cout<<“n You else if (marks>60) cout<<“n You else if (marks>50) cout<<“n You else cout<<“n You got A grade”; won scholarship too”; got B grade”; got C grade”; got D grade”; are fail”;

The Conditional Operator • This operator consists of two symbols, which operate on three operands. • Is same as we write:

The Conditional Operator • The part of this statement to the right of the equal sign is called the conditional expression: • The question mark and the colon make up the conditional operator. The expression before the question mark is the test expression.

The Conditional Operator • If the test expression is true, the entire conditional expression takes on the value of the operand following the question mark: alpha in this example. • If the test expression is false, the conditional expression takes on the value of the operand following the colon: beta.

Conditional Operator (Ternary operator) if (x > 0) y = 1; else y = -1; is equivalent to y = (x > 0) ? 1 : -1; Syntax: result = (condition) ? Expression 1 : Expression 2;

Conditional Operator, examples cout << ((num % 2 == 0) ? "num is even" : "num is odd"); int min_value = (num 1<num 2) ? num 1 : num 2; unsigned int absvalue = (n< 0) ? -n : n;

switch statement • Provides a series of alternatives (selections) based on the value of a SINGLE variable • Replaces a series of chained if-else statements • Makes code easier to read

Switch - Syntax switch (Variable) { case <value_1> : statement 1; statement 2; statement 3; break; case <value_2> : statement 1; statement 2; break; case <value_3> : statement 1; break; default: } statement 1; statement 2; Optional

switch statement (without break) Suppose ch is 'a’ switch (ch) { case 'a': cout <<“ ch contains a”; case 'b': cout <<“ ch contains b”; case 'c': cout <<“ ch contains c”; }

switch statement (with break) Suppose ch is ‘b’ switch (ch) { case 'a': cout <<“ ch contains a”; break; case 'b': cout <<“ ch contains b”; break; case 'c': cout <<“ ch contains c”; break; } cout<<“n End of program…”;

Switch – Example-1 char grade; cin>>grade; switch (grade) { case ‘A’: tution_fees *= 0. 20; break; case ‘B’: tution_fees *= 0. 40; break; case ‘C’: tution_fees *= 0. 60; break; } default: tution_fees *= 1;

Switch – Example-3 int a, b; char key; cout<<“n. Enter numbers: “; cin>>a>>b; cout<<“Enter an arithmetic operator”; cin>> key; switch (key) { case ‘+’ : cout<<(a+b); break; case ‘-’ : cout<<(a-b); break; case ‘*’ : cout<<(a*b); break; case ‘/’ : cout<<(a/b); break; default: cout<<“Error: Invalid key…"; }

Logical Operators • These operators allow you to logically combine Boolean variables (that is, variables of type bool, with true or false values). • For example, If today is Sunday and its not raining then I will play cricket. • The logical connection here is the word and, which provides a true or false value to the combination of the two phrases. • Only if they are both true then I will play cricket.
