Control flow statements in Java

Control flow statements in Java are used to manage the flow of execution in a program. They determine the order in which statements are executed based on certain conditions. Here are the main control flow statements in Java:


1. if Statement:

   - The `if` statement is used for conditional branching.

   - It executes a block of code if a specified condition is true.


   int x = 10;

   if (x > 5) {

       // code to execute if x is greater than 5

   }



2. if-else Statement:

   - The `if-else` statement allows branching based on a condition.

   - It executes one block of code if the condition is true and another if it's false.


   int x = 10;

   if (x > 5) {

       // code to execute if x is greater than 5

   } else {

       // code to execute if x is not greater than 5

   }



3. if-else if-else Statement:

   - This structure allows handling multiple conditions sequentially.



   int x = 10;

   if (x > 5) {

       // code to execute if x is greater than 5

   } else if (x < 5) {

       // code to execute if x is less than 5

   } else {

       // code to execute if x is equal to 5

   }



4. Switch Statement:

   - The `switch` statement is used for multiple branching based on the value of an expression.

   - It replaces multiple `if-else if` statements for readability.


   int day = 3;

   switch (day) {

       case 1:

           // code for Monday

           break;

       case 2:

           // code for Tuesday

           break;

       // other cases...

       default:

           // code for other days

   }

   


5. while Loop:

   - The `while` loop repeatedly executes a block of code while a specified condition is true.


  

   int i = 0;

   while (i < 5) {

       // code to execute while i is less than 5

       i++;

   }



6. do-while Loop:

   - The `do-while` loop is similar to `while`, but it ensures the block of code is executed at least once.


   int i = 0;

   do {

       // code to execute (at least once)

       i++;

   } while (i < 5);



7. for Loop:

   - The `for` loop is used for iterating over a range of values.


   for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {

       // code to execute for each iteration

   }



8. break and continue Statements:

   - `break` is used to exit a loop prematurely, and `continue` is used to skip the rest of the code in a loop and move to the next iteration.


   for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {

       if (i == 5) {

           break; // exit the loop when i is 5

       }

       if (i % 2 == 0) {

           continue; // skip even numbers

       }

       // code to execute for odd numbers

   }



Control flow statements are essential for building logic and making decisions in Java programs. They provide the necessary tools for creating structured and efficient code.

Passing and Returning Objects in Java Methods

Passing and Returning Objects in Java Methods In Java, objects can be passed as parameters to methods and returned from methods just like other primitive data types. This allows for flexibility and the manipulation of object state within methods. Let's explore how passing and returning objects work in Java. Passing Objects as Parameters When you pass an object as a parameter to a method, you are essentially passing a reference to that object. This means that changes made to the object inside the method will affect the original object outside the method.  Example: class Car {     String model;     Car(String model) {         this.model = model;     } } public class CarProcessor {     // Method to modify the Car object     static void modifyCar(Car car, String newModel) {         car.model = newModel;     }     public static void main(String[] args) {       ...

Understanding Constructors in Java: A Simple Guide with Examples and Analogies

  What is a Constructor in Java? In Java, a constructor is a special type of method that is used to initialize objects. When you create an object of a class, the constructor is called automatically. Its main job is to set the initial values of the object’s properties or perform any setup that the object needs before it can be used. Why Do We Need Constructors? You need constructors because: Initialization : Constructors are responsible for initializing an object when it is created. Automatic Execution : A constructor is automatically called when an object is created, so you don’t have to manually initialize every property. Simplifying Object Creation : It simplifies object creation by providing default values or custom initialization. Where Do Constructors Fit in Java? Constructors fit within a class. They are used whenever a new object of that class is created, and they allow the object to be initialized. Constructors must have the same name as the class, and they don't have a re...
