C++ Decision Making

Flow Control

C++ Decision Making

C++ conditional statements allows you to make decision, based upon the result of a condition. These statements are called as Decision Making Statements or Conditional Statements.

So far, we have seen that all set of statements in a C++ program gets executed sequentially in the order in which they are written and appear. This occurs when there is no jump based statements or repetitions of certain calculations. But a number of situations may arise where we may have to change the order of execution of statements depending on some specific conditions. This involves a kind of decision making from a set of calculations. It is to be noted that C++ assumes any non-zero or non-null value as true and if zero or null, treated as false.

This type of structure requires that the programmers indicate several conditions for evaluation within a program. The statement(s) will get executed only if the condition becomes true and optionally, alternative statement or set of statements will get executed if the condition becomes false.

The flowchart of Decision making technique in C++ can be expressed as:

C++ languages have such decision making capabilities within its program by the use of following decision making statements:

Python Lists

Python Lists Dealing with data in a structured format is quiet generous, and this is possible if those data are set accordingly in a specific manner. So, Python provides these data structures named ‘lists’ and ‘tuples’ that are used to organize data in single set. Python has 6 built-in sequences and among them the most famous are “lists and tuples”. The lists are containers that hold a number of other objects in a given order. It usually puts into practice the sequence protocol and allows programmers to add or remove objects from that sequence. Each element of the sequence is assigned a number i.e. he index and the first index is 0 (zero). This versatile data-type of Python is written in a sequence of list separated by commas between expressions. Creating Lists To build a list, just put a number of expressions in square brackets. The syntax is: Syntax: lst1 = [ ] # lst1 is the name of the list lst2 = [ expression1 , …. , expression_N ] Example: #!/usr/bin/python ls...

C++ Objects and Classes

C++ Object Oriented C++ Objects and Classes In object-oriented programming languages like C++, the data and functions (procedures to manipulate the data) are bundled together as a self-contained unit called an object. A class is an extended concept similar to that of structure in C programming language; this class describes the data properties alone. In C++ programming language, class describes both the properties (data) and behaviors (functions) of objects. Classes are not objects, but they are used to instantiate objects. What is a class? A class is an abstract data type similar to ‘ C structure ‘. Class representation of objects and the sets of operations that can be applied to such objects. Class consists of Data members and methods. Primary purpose of a class is to held data/information. This is achieved with attributes which is also know as data members. The member functions determine the behavior of the class i.e. provide definition for supporting various operations on data held...

C++ Polymorphism

C++ Polymorphism The term Polymorphism get derived from the Greek word where poly + morphos where poly means many and morphos means forms. In programming background, polymorphism can be broadly divided into two parts. These are: Static Polymorphism Dynamic Polymorphism. Polymorphism is another concept of object oriented programming (OOPs). The attitude which lies beneath this concept is “single interface having multiple implementations.” This provides a single interface for controlling access to a general class of actions. Polymorphism can be gained in both ways: compile time and run time A common and simple example of polymorphism is when you used >> and << as operator overloading in C++, for cin and cout statements respectively. This bitwise shift operator at that time acts as a inclusion operator and its overloaded meaning is defined in iostream header file. Static Polymorphism In static polymor...
