Real-Life Examples

Real-Life Examples

This example illustrates how you can utilize if..else to “unlock a door” when the user inputs the correct code.

Example

int doorCode = 1337;
if (doorCode == 1337) {
   System
.out.println("Correct code. The door is now open.");
}
else {
 System
.out.println("Wrong code. The door remains closed.");
}

This example demonstrates how if..else can be used to determine whether a number is positive or negative.

Example

int myNum = 10; // Is this a positive or negative number?
if (myNum > 0) {
   System.out.println("The value is a
positive number.");
} else if (myNum < 0) {
  System.out.println("The value is a negative number.");
} else {
   System.out.println("The value is
0.");
}

Determine if an individual is of legal voting age.

Example

int myAge = 25;

int votingAge = 18;

 

if (myAge >= votingAge) {

  System.out.println(“Old enough to vote!”);

} else {

  System.out.println(“Not old enough to vote.”);

}

Determine whether a number is even or odd.

Example

int myNum = 5;
 
if (myNum % 2 == 0) {
  System.out.println(myNum + " is even");
} else {
  System.out.println(myNum + " is odd");

}
