Sequence Structure Selection Structure

Want your programs to make decisions regarding which calculations to perform

Repetition Structure May want to repeat calculations without

writing the statement over and over This is called looping..

4.1 Relational and Logical Operations

Relational Operators and Relational Expressions

Logical Operator and Logical Expressions

Relational OperatorsRelational Operators

C contains six relational operators: < less than < = less than or equal to = = equal to > greater than > = greater than or equal to ! = not equal to

Conditional OperatorConditional Operator

How does the ? : conditional operator work?How does the ? : conditional operator work? The ? : operator requires three operands.The ? : operator requires three operands. expression1 ? expression2 : expression3 expression1 ? expression2 : expression3 If expression1 is true, expression2 is executed.If expression1 is true, expression2 is executed. If expression1 is false, expression3 is executed.If expression1 is false, expression3 is executed. Can be used to find the smaller of two numbers.Can be used to find the smaller of two numbers.

x = (y < z) ? y : zx = (y < z) ? y : z Assigns x the value of the smaller of y and z.Assigns x the value of the smaller of y and z.

Statements using the ? : operator are good Statements using the ? : operator are good shorthand for longer if-else type control structures.shorthand for longer if-else type control structures.

Logical ExpressionsLogical Expressions

The results of a logical expression (using the symbols A and B to indicate relational expressions)

A B A && B A | | B !A !B T T T T F F T F F T F T F T F T T F F F F F T T

Precedence of Precedence of OperatorsOperators

What are the precedence and associativity of logical, relational, and arithmetic operators?

Operator Name Associativity Precedence() parentheses L to R 1 (highest)++, -- post-increment L to R 2 ++, -- pre-increment R to L 2! Logical NOT L to R 3+, - Positive, negative sign L to R 3 +=,-=,*=,/=,%= compound assignment R to L 3*, / multiplication, division L to R 4+, - Addition, subtraction L to R 5 ==,>=,<=,>,<,!= relational operator L to R 6&& Logical AND L to R 7|| Logical OR L to R 8

= Assignment R to L 9 (lowest)

Precedence of Operators

x = (a>b || b>c && a==b) x = ( a>b || b>c && a==b ) (6) x = ((a>b)) || (b>c) && (a==b)) x = ((4>-2) || (-2>0) && 4==-2) x = ( True || False && False ) (7) x = ( True || False ) (8) x = ( True )

Switch Control Structures What does the switch statement do?

Commonly is constructed similarly to the if-else-if control structure. Transfer control

Syntax switch(expression) { case constant1: statement1a statement1b … case constant2: statement2a statement2b … default: statements }
