Program
 A Program is a set of instructions that a computer uses to perform a
specific function.
To use an analogy, a program is like a computer’s recipe.
It contains a list of ingredients (called variables) and a list of
directions(called statements) that tell the computer how to execute a
specific task.

 A statement causes an action to be performed by the program.
 It translates directly into one or more executable computer
instructions.
 Generally statement is ended with semicolon.
 Most statements need a semicolon at the end; some do not.
Statements

Compound Statement
 Compound statements are used to group the statements into a single
executable unit.
 It consists of one or more individual statements enclosed within the
braces { }

 The decision is described to the computer as a conditional
statement that can be answered either true or false.
 If the answer is true, one or more action statements are executed.
 If the answer is false, then a different action or set of actions is
executed.
Types of decision control structures:
 if
 if..else
 nested if…else
 else if ladder
 dangling else
 switch statement
Decision Control Structures

if (condition)
{
statement-block;
}
Decision Control Statement: if
The general form of a simple if statement is:
Following are the properties of an if statement:
 If the condition is true then the statement-block will be executed.
 If the condition is false it does not do anything ( or the statement is
skipped)
 The condition is given in parentheses and must be evaluated as true
(nonzero value) or false (zero value).
 If a compound statement is provided, it must be enclosed in opening
and closing braces.

if(a>b)
{
printf(“%d”,a);

Syntactical Rules for if…else Statements
 The expression or condition which is followed by if statement
must be enclosed in parenthesis.
 No semicolon is needed for an if…else statement.
 Both the true and false statements can be any statement (even
another if…else).
 Multiple statements under if and else should be enclosed
between curly braces.
 No need to enclose a single statement in curly braces.

A Simple if...else Statement
Decision Control Statement: if..else

Compound Statements in an if...else

Example for Decision Control Statement: if..else

Nested if…else Statements
Decision Control Statement: nested if…else
 Nested if…else means within the if…else you can include another if…else either in
if block or else block.

Decision Control Statement: nested if…else

if (condition1)
statements1;
else if (condition2)
statements2;
statements3;
statements4;
……
else if(conditionn)
statementsn;
else
default_statement;
statement x;
Decision Control Statement: else if
 The conditions are evaluated from the top to down.
 As soon as a true condition is found the statement associated with it is executed
and the control is transferred to the statementx by skipping the rest of the ladder.
 When all n conditions become false,final else containing default_statement
that will be executed

main() {
float m1,m2,m3,m4;
float perc;
printf(“Enter marksn”);
scanf(“%f%f%f%f”,&m1,&m2,&m3,&m4);
perc=(m1+m2+m3+m4)/4;
if(perc>=75)
printf(“nDistinction”);
else {
if(per<75 && per>=60)
printf(“nFirst Class”);
else {
if(per<60 && per>=50)
printf(“nSecond Class”);
else {
if(per<50 && per>=40)
printf(“nThird Class”);
else
Example program for nested if…else

Example program for else if
main()
{
float m1,m2,m3,m4;
float perc;
printf(“enter marksn”);
scanf(“%f%f%f%f”,&m1,&m2,&m3,&m4);
perc=(m1+m2+m3+m4)/4;
if(perc>=75)
printf(“nDistinction”);
else if(per<75 && per>=60)
printf(“nFirst Class”);
printf(“nSecond Class”);
printf(“nThird Class”);
else
printf(“nFail”);
}//main

Dangling else
Dangling else
else is always paired with the most recent unpaired if.

Dangling else Solution
Dangling else (contd…)
 To avoid dangling else problem place the inner if statement with in
the curly braces.

Conditional Expression
 A simple if…else can be represented using the conditional (ternary)
expression.

 It is a multi-way conditional statement generalizing the if…else
statement.
 It is a conditional control statement that allows some particular group
of statements to be chosen from several available groups.
 A switch statement allows a single variable to be compared with
several possible case labels, which are represented by constant values.
 If the variable matches with one of the constants, then an execution
jump is made to that point.
 A case label cannot appear more than once and there can only be one
default expression.
Decision Control Statement: switch

 Note: switch statement does not allow less than ( < ), greater than (
> ).
 ONLY the equality operator (==) is used with a switch statement.
 The control variable must be integral (int or char) only.
 When the switch statement is encountered, the control variable is
evaluated.
 Then, if that evaluated value is equal to any of the values specified
in a case clause, the statements immediately following the colon
(“:”) begin to run.
 Default case is optional and if specified, default statements will be
executed, if there is no match for the case labels.
 Once the program flow enters a case label, the statements
associated with case have been executed, the program flow
continues with the statement for the next case. (if there is no break
statement after case label.)

General format of switch:

 The following results are possible, depending on the value of printFlag.
 If printFlag is 1, then all three printf statements are executed.
 If printFlag is 2, then the first print statement is skipped and the last two
are executed.
 Finally, if printFlag is neither 1 nor 2, then only the statement defined by
the default is executed.

Example1 for switch statement:

 If you want to execute only one case-label, C provides break
statement.
 It causes the program to jump out of the switch statement, that is go
to the closing braces (}) and continues the remaining code of the
program.
 If we add break to the last statement of the case, the general form of
switch case is as follows:

Example2 for switch statement:

Concept of a loop(Iterative)
 The real power of computers is in their ability to repeat an
operation or a series of operations many times.
 This repetition, called looping, is one of the basic structured
programming concepts.
 Each loop must have an expression that determines if the loop is
done.
 If it is not done, the loop repeats one more time; if it is done, the
loop terminates.

Pretest Loop
In each iteration, the control expression is tested first. If it is
true, the loop continues; otherwise, the loop is terminated.
Post-test Loop
In each iteration, the loop action(s) are executed. Then the
control expression is tested. If it is true, a new iteration is
started; otherwise, the loop terminates.
Note

while
 The "while" loop is a generalized looping structure that employs a variable
or expression for testing the condition.
 It is a repetition statement that allows an action to be repeated while some
conditions remain true.
 The body of while statement can be a single statement or compound
statements.
 It doesn’t perform even a single operation if condition fails.

Example 1: To print 1 to 10 natural numbers
#include<stdio.h>
main()
{
int i;
i=1;
while (i<=10)
{
printf(“%dn”,i);
i++;
}
}

Example 2: To print the reverse of the given number.
void main()
{
int n, n1,rem, rev = 0;
printf("n Enter a positive number: ");
scanf("%d",&n);
n1=n;
while(n != 0)
{
rem = n%10;
rev = rev*10+rem;
n = n/10;
}
printf("The reverse of %d is %d",n1,rev);
}

Example 3: To print fibonacci sequence for the given number.
#include<stdio.h>
main()
{
int a=0,b=1,c,i;
i=1;
printf("%d%d",a,b);
do
{
c=a+b;
i++;
printf("%3d",c);
a=b;
b=c;
}while(i<=10);
}

Example 4: To print multiplication table for 5.
#include <stdio.h>
void main()
{
int i = 1, n=5;
do
{
printf(“ %d * %d = %d “, n, i, n*i);
i = i + 1;
} while ( i<= 10);
}

 A for loop is used when a loop is to be executed a known number
of times.
We can do the same thing with a while loop, but the for loop is
easier to read and more natural for counting loops.
General form of the for is:
for( initialization; test-condition; updation)
{

break
 When a break statement is enclosed inside a block or loop, the loop is
immediately exited and program continues with the next statement
immediately following the loop.
 When loop are nested break only exit from the inner loop containing it.
The format of the break statement is:

Example 6: Program to demonstrate break statement.
#include<stdio.h>
main()
{
int i;
i=1;
while(i<=10)
{
if(i==8)
break;
printf(“%dt”,i);
i=i+1;
}
printf(“n Thanking You”);
}

continue
 When a continue statement is enclosed inside a block or loop, the loop is
to be continued with the next iteration.
 The continue statement tells the compiler, skip the following statements
and continue with the next iteration.
 The format of the continue statement is:

Example 5: Program to demonstrate continue statement.
#include<stdio.h>
main()
{
int i;
for(i=1;i<=5;i++)
{
if(i = = 3)
continue;
printf(" %d",i);
}
}
