In this article,we will learn about c++ if else control statement.Before moving forward if you don’t know what is control statement, please click here.
In C++ programming, if statement is used to test the condition. There are various types of if statements in C++.
Types of if statement
- if statemet
- if-else statement
- nested if statement
- if-else-if ladder
C++ IF Statement
The C++ if statement tests the condition. It is executed if condition is true.
if(condition) { //code to be executed }
C++ if statement Example
#include <iostream> using namespace std; int main () { int num = 10; if (num % 2 == 0) { cout<<"It is even number"; } return 0; }
//It is even number
C++ IF-else Statement
The C++ if-else statement also tests the condition. It executes if block if condition is true otherwise else block is executed.
if(condition){ //code if condition is true }else{ //code if condition is false }
C++ If-else Example
#include <iostream> using namespace std; int main () { int num = 11; if (num % 2 == 0) { cout<<"It is even number"; } else { cout<<"It is odd number"; } return 0; }
Output
// It is odd number
C++ If-else Example: with input from user
#include <iostream> using namespace std; int main () { int num; cout<<"Enter a Number: "; cin>>num; if (num % 2 == 0) { cout<<"It is even number"<<endl; } else { cout<<"It is odd number"<<endl; } return 0; }
Output:
// Enter a number:11 // It is odd number
Output:
// Enter a number:12 // It is even number
C++ IF-else-if ladder Statement
The C++ if-else-if ladder statement executes one condition from multiple statements.
if(condition1){ //code to be executed if condition1 is true }else if(condition2){ //code to be executed if condition2 is true } else if(condition3){ //code to be executed if condition3 is true } ... else{ //code to be executed if all the conditions are false }
C++ If else-if Example
#include <iostream> using namespace std; int main () { int num; cout<<"Enter a number to check grade:"; cin>>num; if (num <0 || num >100) { cout<<"wrong number"; } else if(num >= 0 && num < 50){ cout<<"Fail"; } else if (num >= 50 && num < 60) { cout<<"D Grade"; } else if (num >= 60 && num < 70) { cout<<"C Grade"; } else if (num >= 70 && num < 80) { cout<<"B Grade"; } else if (num >= 80 && num < 90) { cout<<"A Grade"; } else if (num >= 90 && num <= 100) { cout<<"A+ Grade"; } }
Output:
// Enter a number to check grade:66 // C Grade
Output:
// Enter a number to check grade:-2 // wrong number
