CONTROL STATEMENTS

Sequential Statements:

Statements inside sequential control constructs are executed sequentially.

if-else Statement : The if-else statement is the general form of selection statement.

case Statement : The case statement provides for multi-way branching.

repeat loop : Repeat statements can be used to repeat the execution of a statement or statement block a fixed number of times.

for loop : The for construct can be used to create loops.

while loop : The loop iterates while the condition is true.

do-while : condition is checked after loop iteration.

foreach :ech construct specifies iteration over the elements of an single dimensional fixed-size arrays, dynamic arrays and SmartQs.

Loop Control : The break and continue statements are used for flow control within loops.

EXAMPLE : if
program main {
integer i;
i = 20;
if( i == 20)
printf(" I is equal to %d ",i);
else
printf(" I is not equal to %d ",i);

}
RESULTS

I is equal to 20

EXAMPLE : case and repeat
program main {
integer i;

repeat(10){
i = random();
case(1) {
(i<0) :printf(" i is less than zero i==%d\n",i);
(i>0) :printf(" i is grater than zero i=%d\n",i);
(i == 0):printf(" i is equal to zero i=%d\n",i);
}
}
}
RESULTS

i is grater than zero i=69120
i is grater than zero i=475628600
i is grater than zero i=1129920902
i is grater than zero i=773000284
i is grater than zero i=1730349006
i is grater than zero i=1674352583
i is grater than zero i=1662201030
i is grater than zero i=2044158707
i is grater than zero i=1641506755
i is grater than zero i=797919327

EXAMPLE : forloop
program for_loop
{
integer count, i;
for(count = 0, i=0; i*count<50; i++, count++)
printf("Value i = %0d\n", i);
}

RESULTS

Value i = 0
Value i = 1
Value i = 2
Value i = 3
Value i = 4
Value i = 5
Value i = 6
Value i = 7

EXAMPLE : whileloop
program while_loop{
integer operator=0;
while (operator<5){
operator += 1;
printf("Operator is %0d\n", operator);
}
}
RESULTS

Operator is 1
Operator is 2
Operator is 3
Operator is 4
Operator is 5

EXAMPLE : dowhile
program test
{
integer i = 0;
do
{
printf("i = %0d \n", i);
i++;
} while (i < 10);
}
RESULTS

i = 0
i = 1
i = 2
i = 3
i = 4
i = 5
i = 6
i = 7
i = 8
i = 9

EXAMPLE : foeach
program example{
string names[$]={"Hello", "Vera"};
foreach (names, i) {
printf("Value at index %0d is %0s\n", i, names[i]);
}
}
RESULTS

Value at index 0 is Hello
Value at index 1 is Vera

EXAMPLE : randcase
program rand_case{
integer i;
repeat(10){
randcase
{
10: i=1;
20: i=2;
50: i=3;
}
printf(" i is %d \n",i);}
}
RESULTS

i is 3
i is 2
i is 3
i is 3
i is 3
i is 3
i is 1
i is 1
i is 1
i is 2
