# Control Flow Statements |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Control flow statements allow you to execute certain parts of your code if specific conditions are met. In C++, there are three main control flow statements: `if-else`, `switch`, and `goto`. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## if-else |
||||||
|
The `if-else` statement is a fundamental control flow statement that allows you to execute one of two blocks of code depending on whether a condition is satisfied. This statement is useful for complex comparisons. The syntax for the `if-else` statement is: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```cpp |
||||||
|
if (condition) { |
||||||
|
// Block of code executed if the condition is true |
||||||
|
} else { |
||||||
|
// Block of code executed if the condition is false |
||||||
|
} |
||||||
|
``` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For example: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```cpp |
||||||
|
#include <iostream> |
||||||
|
using namespace std; |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
int main() { |
||||||
|
int a = 10, b = 5; |
||||||
|
if (a > b) { |
||||||
|
cout << "a is greater than b"; |
||||||
|
} else { |
||||||
|
cout << "b is greater than a"; |
||||||
|
} |
||||||
|
} |
||||||
|
``` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## switch |
||||||
|
The `switch` statement allows you to execute different blocks of code based on the value of a `control variable`. It uses `cases` to define code blocks that run when a specific value matches. A `default` case is executed if none of the other cases match. Each `case` must end with a `break` statement; otherwise, all following cases will execute. `Switch` is useful when you want to compare `constant values`. The syntax for the `switch` statement is: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```cpp |
||||||
|
switch (control_variable) { |
||||||
|
case 1: { |
||||||
|
// Code to be executed for case 1 |
||||||
|
break; |
||||||
|
} |
||||||
|
case 2: { |
||||||
|
// Code to be executed for case 2 |
||||||
|
break; |
||||||
|
} |
||||||
|
default: { |
||||||
|
// Code to be executed if no cases match |
||||||
|
break; |
||||||
|
} |
||||||
|
} |
||||||
|
``` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For example: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```cpp |
||||||
|
#include <iostream> |
||||||
|
using namespace std; |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
int main() { |
||||||
|
int ch; |
||||||
|
cout << "Select a language: 1. English 2. French"; |
||||||
|
cin >> ch; |
||||||
|
switch (ch) { |
||||||
|
case 1: { |
||||||
|
cout << "Good morning!"; |
||||||
|
break; |
||||||
|
} |
||||||
|
case 2: { |
||||||
|
cout << "Bonjour!"; |
||||||
|
break; |
||||||
|
} |
||||||
|
default: { |
||||||
|
cout << "The option does not exist :)"; |
||||||
|
break; |
||||||
|
} |
||||||
|
} |
||||||
|
} |
||||||
|
``` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## goto |
||||||
|
The `goto` statement allows you to jump to different parts of your program using `labels` as location points. The syntax for `goto` is: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```cpp |
||||||
|
goto label_name; |
||||||
|
``` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For example: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```cpp |
||||||
|
#include <iostream> |
||||||
|
using namespace std; |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
int main() { |
||||||
|
cout << "This is line 1"; |
||||||
|
goto line_3; |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
cout << "This line will be skipped"; |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
line_3: |
||||||
|
cout << "This is line 3"; |
||||||
|
} |
||||||
|
``` |
