If Statement
• An if statement consists of a Boolean expression followed by one or more
statements. If the Boolean expression evaluates to true then the block of
code inside the if statement will be executed. If not the first set of code
after the end of the if statement (after the closing curly brace) will be
executed.
if(Boolean expression)
{
//Some code should be work
}
public static void main(String[] y)
{
int my_int=25;
if(my_int==25)
{
System.out.println("the condition is true");
}
}

If else Statement
• An if statement can be followed by an optional else statement,
which executes when the Boolean expression is false.
if(Boolean expression)
{ //some code excut }
else
{ //some code excut }
{
int my_int=25;
if(my_int<25)
{ System.out.println("the condition is true"); }
else
{ System.out.println("the condition is not true"); }
}

If…else…if 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 any 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.
if(Boolean Expression 1)
{ //some code }
else if (Boolean Expression 2)
{ //some code }
else if (Boolean Expression 2)
{ //some code }
else
{ //some code }

{
int my_int=25;
if(my_int<25)
{
System.out.println("the condition is true");
}
else if(my_int>25)
{System.out.println("the else if condition is true for 25 >
25");
}
else if(my_int==25)
{
System.out.println("the condition is true for 25==25");
}
else
{
System.out.println("any of the condition is not ture");
}
}

Nest if…else Statement
• It is always legal to nest if-else statements which means you can use one if
or else if statement inside another if or else if statement.
if(boolean expression 1)
{
if(boolean expression 2)
{ //some code }
else
{ //some code }
}

{
int course_value=90;
String course_name="java";
String Course_type="core & advanced";
if(course_value==90)
{
if(course_name=="java")
{
if(Course_type=="core & advanced")
{
System.out.println("the nested condition is
true");
}
}
}
else
{
System.out.println("the nested conditions are not true");
}
}

Switch Statement
• Switch case statements are a substitute for long if statements that
compare a variable to several "integral" values.. The value of the variable
given into switch is compared to the value following each of the cases, and
when one value matches the value of the variable, the computer
continues executing the program from that point.
switch(expression)
{
case value1: {//some code}break;
case value2: {//some code}break;
default: {//some code}break;
}

{
int x=10;
/*
* x value is compared with case values
*/
switch(x)
{
case 10:{System.out.println("the x value is 10");}break;
}
}

LOOP control Statements
• loop is a sequence of instruction s that is continually repeated until a
certain condition is reached.
There are four types of loops:
• For loop
• For each loop
• While loop
• Do..While loop
<<goto first slide>>

For loop
• The for is an entry-entrolled loop and is used when an action is to
repeated for a predetermined number of times
for(initial value; test condition; increment)
{ //some code }
{
for(int i=0; i<5; i++)
{System.out.println("hello world "+i);}
}
Go to loop slide

Foreach Statement
• A ForEach style loop is designed to cycle through a collection of
objects,such as an array, in strictly sequential fashion, from start to
finish.Implement a foreach loop by using the keyword foreach, java adds
the foreach compability by enhancing the for statement.
• for(type itr-var:collection)statement-block
int[] a={1,2,3,4};
for(int x:a)
{
System.out.println("array of a["+x+"] "+a[x]);
}
Go to loop slide

While loop(Entry Control loop)
• It repeates a statement or block while its controlling expression(any boolean
Expression) is true
• The body of the loop will be executed as long as the conditional expression is
true.
while(condition)
{
//body of code
}
{
while(x<5)
{ /*x++ increment value of x;*/
System.out.println("the value of x is "+x);
x++;
}
}
Go to loop slide

Do-while loop
• A while loop is initially false then the body of the loop will not be executed at
all .The do-while loop always executes its body at least once because its
conditional expression is at the bottom of the loop
do
{ //body of code
}while(boolean expression);
System.out.println("the do While loop");
int x=1;
do
{
/*x++ increment value of x;
*/
System.out.println("the value of x is "+x);
x++;
}while(x<5);

Jump Statements
• Break
• Continue
• Return
<<goto first slide>>

Jump Statements
• Break
• In java the break statement has 3 uses
• Terminates a statement sequence in a switch statement
• It can be used to exit loop
• It can be used more civilized form of goto statement
• Using Break to exit the loop
By using break, you can force immediate termination of a loop .when break
statement is encountered inside a loop the loop is terminated and
program control resumes at the next statement following loop

{
for(int i=0;i<10;i++)
{
if(i==5)
{
System.out.println("condition break");
break;
}
System.out.println("the value of i is::"+i);
}
}

• Using break in the form of GOTO
• Syntax Break label_name;
{
first:{
secound:{
third:{
System.out.println("third block");
if(true)
{
break secound;
}
}
System.out.println("secound block");
}
System.out.println("first block");
}
}
go to jump statements

Continue
• A continue statement causes control to be transferred directly to the
conditional expression that controls the loop
{
for(int i=0;i<5;i++)
{
if(true)
{
System.out.println("the if block");
continue;
}
System.out.println("the for loop");
}
}

Using continue with labels
• Specify the labels with continue statement
{
outer:for(int i=0;i<=2;i++){
for(int j=0;j<=1;j++)
{
System.out.println("value of J is::"+j);
continue outer;
}
System.out.println("the value of i is::"+i);
}
/*
for continue labels it should be used with loops only not for blocks
*/
}
Go to jump statements

Return
• The return statement is used to explicitly return from a method.That is,it
causes program control to transfer back to the caller of the method.At any
time in a method the return statement can be used to cause execution to
branch back to the caller of the method.Thus,the return statement can be
used to cause execution to branch back to the caller ot the method.Thus, the
return statement immediately terminates the method in which it is executed.
{
System.out.println("before return statement");
if(true)
{
return;
}
System.out.println("after return statement");
/*
here return causes execution to return to the java run-time system
*/
}

class Demo_break
{
int demo()
{
return(1);
}
{
Demo_break d=new Demo_break();
System.out.println("the return value
is"+d.demo());
}
}
• goto jump statement

• Find the errors in the following
1. If(x+y=z&&y>0)
2. If(x>0);
A=b+c;
Else
A=a*b;
3. If(x<0)||(q<0)

Class ifelse
{ int result=55; char grade;
if(result>90) grade=‘A’;
else if(result>80)grade=“B”;
else if(result>70) grade=“c”;
else grade=“F”;
else grade=“g”;
System.out.println(“the grade is “+grade);
}
See the output

• Correct the code to print the output “correct
value”
public static void main(String[] args) {
int i=2;
if(i=2)
{
System.out.println("correct value");
}
else
{
System.out.println("not correct value");
}
