Objectives In this tutorial, you will learn to: –Use basic problem-solving techniques. –Use control statements. –Use pseudocode as an application development tool. –Use the if and if…else selection statements to choose between alternative actions. –Use the assignment operators. –Define constants to contain values that do not change as an application executes. –Use the debugger’s Watch window to evaluate expressions. –Use the debugger’s Locals window to change variable values during program execution.

4 © Copyright 1992–2005 by Deitel & Associates, Inc. and Pearson Education Inc. All Rights Reserved. 4.1Test Driving the Wage Calculator Application (Cont.) Inputting floating-point values and returning a result –Enter 12.5 at the Enter hourly wage: prompt. –Enter 50.5 at the Enter hours worked this week: prompt Figure 4.4 Running the Wage Calculator application.

5 © Copyright 1992–2005 by Deitel & Associates, Inc. and Pearson Education Inc. All Rights Reserved. Algorithms –The actions to be executed –The order in which these actions are to be executed Program Control –Task of executing statements in correct order 4.2Algorithms

6 © Copyright 1992–2005 by Deitel & Associates, Inc. and Pearson Education Inc. All Rights Reserved. Pseudo code –Informal language to develop algorithms –Resembles everyday English Not a programming language –Only describes executable statements Examples Assign 0 to the counter is equal to: counter = 0; If student’s grade is greater than or equal to 60 Display “Passed” 4.3Pseudocode

7 © Copyright 1992–2005 by Deitel & Associates, Inc. and Pearson Education Inc. All Rights Reserved. 4.4Control Statements Sequence, Selection, Repetition –Sequential Execution within a Block of Code Within a block of code Instructions are executed one after another in the order in which they are written Blocks of Code have a Single Entry / Exit defined by curly brackets {} A modern program is defined by an orderly Stacking and Nesting of blocks of code. –Conditional Statements (Selection) if, if…else, switch –if : single selection statement –if…else : double selection statement –switch : multiple selection statement –Looping Statements (Repetition) while, do…while, for

8 © Copyright 1992–2005 by Deitel & Associates, Inc. and Pearson Education Inc. All Rights Reserved. 4.4Control Statements (Cont.) Unified Modeling Language (UML) –Activity Diagram Models the workflow of a portion of a software system –Symbols in UML Action-state symbols –Rectangles with left and right sides curved out »Represent an action about to occur Diamonds –Represent a decision to be made Small circles –Represent initial and final state of workflow Transition arrows

10 © Copyright 1992–2005 by Deitel & Associates, Inc. and Pearson Education Inc. All Rights Reserved. 4.5 if Selection Statement if statement performs action based on condition –Conditions are boolean expressions (true / false value) Statement executes when boolean expression is true Conditional expression is inside parenthesis. Conditions are formed with equality operators and relational operators Example pseudocode If student’s grade is greater than or equal to 60 Display “Passed” Corresponding C++ code

11 © Copyright 1992–2005 by Deitel & Associates, Inc. and Pearson Education Inc. All Rights Reserved. Relational operators –Greater than ( >= ), greater ( > ), less than ( <= ), less ( < ) Equality operators –Equal to ( == ), not equal to ( != ) Common Errors –It is a syntax error to add spaces in between the symbols ==, !=, >=, = etc.) –Reversing the symbols in the !=, >= and and =< ) –Using the assignment operator ( = ) when the equality operator ( == ) is intended. Microsoft Visual C++ Studio 2010 does not warn you about this error! 4.5 if Selection Statement (Cont.)
