Permission required for reproduction or display. 4 th Ed Chapter 5 - 2 Flow of Control Until now, statements in a program or method have been executed in the order they appear in the program. A method call allows the program flow to jump from one code segment to a different one and then come back. Control structures allow us much more flexibility. –Selection - choosing which code segments get executed –Repetition - allowing a code segment to be executed multiple times

JOptionPane. showMessageDialog (null, "You did not pass"); JOptionPane. showMessageDialog (null, "You did not pass"); true

Permission required for reproduction or display. 4 th Ed Chapter 5 - 4 Boolean Expressions A boolean expression is an expression whose value is either true or false –true and false are reserved words There is a primitive type called boolean whose values can only be true or false boolean pass, done; done = true; There are operators for creating Boolean expressions –relational operators compare variables to give a boolean result –logical operators have boolean operands We can write methods that return a boolean value (predicate methods)

7 ©The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. 4 th Ed Chapter 5 - 7 Blocks By default, the body of an if statement is a single statement. What if we want to do more than one thing? –A block is a sequence of statements enclosed in curly braces {…} –A block can contain any number of statements (including 0) –A block can contain other blocks –The body of a method is a block

11 ©The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. 4 th Ed Chapter 5 - 11 Logical (Boolean) Operators Java has three logical operators –! is logical NOT (one operand) –&& is logical AND (two operands) –|| is logical OR (two operands) falsetrue falsetruefalse true falsetruefalse truefalse !PP || QP && QQP

12 ©The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. 4 th Ed Chapter 5 - 12 Short-Circuit Evaluation Consider the following boolean expression: x > y || x > z The expression is evaluated left to right. If x > y is true, then there’s no need to evaluate x > z because the whole expression will be true whether x > z is true or not. To stop the evaluation once the result of the whole expression is known is called short-circuit evaluation. What would happen if the short-circuit evaluation is not done for the following expression? z == 0 || x / z > 20

13 ©The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. 4 th Ed Chapter 5 - 13 De Morgan's Law De Morgan's Law allows us to rewrite boolean expressions in different ways Rule 1: !(P && Q)  !P || !Q Rule 2: !(P || Q)  !P && !Q !(temp >= 65 && dist < 2)  !(temp >=65) || !(dist < 2) by Rule 1  (temp = 2)

14 ©The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. 4 th Ed Chapter 5 - 14 Comparing floating point values All the relational operators can be used with floating point expressions Comparing two floating point variables for equality is not a good idea because of round-off error –Very few floating point numbers can be stored exactly in the number of bits available in memory to store a variable –round-off error is the part of the number that needs more significant digits that are available –For example, 0.1 is a repeating fraction in binary: 0.00110001100011000110001100011000110001100011… Only the first 23 bits can be stored in a float; the rest are truncated

15 ©The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. 4 th Ed Chapter 5 - 15 Nested if statements Both the then part and the else part of an if statement can contain any other statement or group of statements If the then or else part of an if statement contains another another if statement, we have a nested if statement. if (condition1) if (condition_t1) statement_tt1; else statement_tf1; else if (condition_f1) statement_ft1; else statement_ff1;

18 ©The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. 4 th Ed Chapter 5 - 18 Dangling else Consider the following code if (test1) if (test2) statement1; else statement2; Under what conditions does statement2 get executed? – test1 is false? – test1 is true and test2 is false? The rule is –An else belongs to the nearest if So, case 2 is the correct one The compiler does not pay attention to indentation

19 ©The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. 4 th Ed Chapter 5 - 19 Comparing variables Relational operators and >= can only be used to compare numeric values The operators == and != can be used to compare variables of any type –These operators compare the memory content of the variables What if we compare two object variables using ==? –what is compared is the address stored in the variables - the comparison will return true only if the two variables refer to the same object –What if we need to compare the data inside the two objects? The class needs to have an equals method defined to do this.

22 ©The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. 4 th Ed Chapter 5 - 22 equals method The Object class (and by inheritance, every other class) has a method boolean equals ( Object obj) By default, this method has the same behavior as == The author of a class can override the equals method to compare object data instead of object references The String class has a version of equals that returns true if two Strings contain the same sequence of characters

23 ©The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display. 4 th Ed Chapter 5 - 23 Selecting between a discrete set of values Java has a second selection statement which is useful when your choices are a set of distinct values (integers or characters). –For example, the coins we use have only a few possible values - 1, 5, 10, 25, 50, 100 –The grades you get for the classes you take can only be A, B, C, D, F You still need to use if-else chains for decisions that involve ranges of numbers.

N == 3 ? false true break;
