2.  Control structures  Algorithm & flowchart  If statements  While statements

3.  Sequential execution: statements in a program execute one after the other in the order in which they’re written.  Example: ◦ Get up ◦ Eat Breakfast ◦ Get on my car ◦ Drive to school

4.  Transfer of Control: Statements enable you to specify that the next statement to execute may be other than the next one in sequence.  All programs could be written in terms of only three control structures ◦ the sequence structure (same as sequential execution) ◦ the selection structure and ◦ the repetition structure

5.  Selection structures: ◦ Get up ◦ Eat Breakfast ◦ Get on my car ◦ Check to see if there is enough gas ◦ If it has enough gas  Drive to school Else {  Drive to the gas station  Get the gas  Drive to school }

6.  Example of repetition structure Repeat the following actions every week-day morning of the school year { ◦ Get up ◦ Eat Breakfast ◦ Get on my car ◦ Check to see if there is enough gas ◦ If it has enough gas  Drive to school Else {  Drive to the gas station  Get the gas  Drive to school }

7.  Before writing a program to solve a problem, we must have a thorough understanding of the problem and a carefully planned approach to solving it.  When writing a program, we must also understand the types of building blocks that are available and employ proven program construction techniques.

8.  Any solvable computing problem can be solved by the execution of a series of actions in a specific order.  An algorithm is procedure for solving a problem in terms of ◦ the actions to execute and ◦ the order in which the actions execute  Specifying the or-der in which statements (actions) execute in a computer program is called program control.

9.  Pseudocode (or “fake” code) is an artificial and informal language that helps you develop algorithms. ◦ Similar to everyday English ◦ Convenient and user friendly. ◦ Helps you “think out” a program before attempting to write it. ◦ Carefully prepared pseudocode can easily be converted to a corresponding C++ program. ◦ Normally describes only executable statements. ◦ Declarations (that do not have initializers or do not involve constructor calls) are not executable statements.

11.  An activity diagram models the workflow (also called the activity) of a portion of a software system.  Activity diagrams are composed of special-purpose symbols, such as: ◦ action state symbols ◦ diamonds and small circles ◦ transition arrows

12. false Print out "You are an honor student” true testScore >= 95?

13.  C++ provides three types of selection statements ◦ The if selection statement either performs (selects) an action if a condition (predicate) is true or skips the action if the condition is false. ◦ The if … else selection statement performs an action if a condition is true or performs a different action if the condition is false. ◦ The switch selection statement performs one of many different actions, depending on the value of an integer expression.

14. if ( ) ; else ;

15. false Print out "You are an honor student"; true testScore >= 95?

16.  Boolean expression: is a conditional expression that is evaluated to either true or false.  Conditional expression: is a three part expression:  Boolean expressions can be combined by boolean operators

18. Boolean operators && meansAND || means OR ! means NOT

19. Boolean Operators

20. false Print out: "You are an honor student" true testScore >= 95? if ( testScore >= 95) cout <<“ You are an honor student”;

21. if ( ) single statement; else single statement;

22. Print out: “You pass” false testScore < 70 ? Print out: “You fail” true if (testScore < 70) cout << “You fail”; else cout << “You pass”;

23. Represents compound statement { } Block

25.  Nested if … else statements test for multiple cases by placing if … else selection statements inside other if … else selection statements.  If student’s grade is greater than or equal to 90 Print “A” Else If student’s grade is greater than or equal to 80 Print “B” Else If student’s grade is greater than or equal to 70 Print “C” Else If student’s grade is greater than or equal to 60 Print “D” Else Print “F”

26.  This pseudocode can be written in C++ as if ( studentGrade >= 90 ) // 90 and above gets "A" cout = 80 ) // 80-89 gets "B" cout = 70 ) // 70-79 gets "C" cout = 60 ) // 60-69 gets "D" cout << "D"; else // less than 60 gets "F" cout << "F“;

27.  A repetition statement (also called a looping statement or a loop) allows you to specify that a program should repeat an action while some condition remains true.  Example: While there are more items on my shopping list Purchase next item and cross it off my list

28. while( ){ // Repeat multiple statements. statement 1 statement 2 statement 3... }

29.  Consider the following problem statement: ◦ A class of ten students took a quiz. The grades (integers in the range 0 to 100) for this quiz are available to you. Calculate and display the total of all student grades and the class average on the quiz.  The class average is equal to the sum of the grades divided by the number of students.  The algorithm for solving this problem on a computer must input each of the grades, calculate the average and print the result.

30.  We use counter-controlled repetition to input the grades one at a time. ◦ This technique uses a variable called a counter to control the number of times a group of statements will execute (also known as the number of iterations of the loop). ◦ Often called definite repetition because the number of repetitions is known before the loop begins exe-cut-ing.

32.  A total is a variable used to accumulate the sum of several values.  A counter is a variable used to count—in this case, the grade counter indicates which of the 10 grades is about to be entered by the user.  Variables used to store totals are normally initialized to zero before being used in a program; otherwise, the sum would in-clude the previous value stored in the total’s memory location.
