Question 1
Write the syntax of 'if' statement.
Answer
The syntax of 'if' statement is as follows:
if(condition )
Statement
OR
if(condition)
{
Statement 1
Statement 2
:
:
Statement n
}
Question 2
What is a compound statement? Give an example.
Answer
A set of two or more statements which are executed together and are placed within curly
brackets { } is called compound statement.
For example,
int n=5;
if(n>0)
{
System.out.println(n);
n=n-1;
}
In this snippet, the statements System.out.println(n); and n=n-1; are compound
statements as they will be executed only when the condition of if is true.
Question 3
Define the following:
(a) Normal flow of control
(b) Conditional flow of control
Answer
(a) Normal flow of control
It is a sequential movement of the control from one statement to another from beginning to
the end of the program. It is the simplest way of executing a program, where there is no
restriction on flow of control during the process.
(b) Conditional flow of control
Sometimes, it may happen that a statement or a set of statements is executed only when a
given condition results in true. However, if the condition results in false, then these
statements are ignored and the control moves forward to the next statement of the program.
This type of flow of control is known as the conditional flow of control and the statements
are known as the decision making statements.
It can be achieved by using the following statements:
1. if statement
2. if-else statement
3. if-else-if statement
Question 4
Write down the syntax of the following with reference to Java Programming:
(a) to accept an integer value using main( )
(b) to accept a fractional number using main( )
Answer
(a) public static void main(int variable_name)
(b) public static void main(float variable_name)
Question 5
What are the different types of errors that may occur during the execution of a program?
Answer
Logical errors and Run-Time errors occur during the execution of the program.
Question 6
Distinguish between Syntax error and Logical error.
Answer
Syntax Errors Logical Errors
Syntax Errors occur when we violate the rules of writing the Logical Errors occur due to our mista
statements of the programming language. programming logic.

people working on the program.
Question 7
Explain the following:
(a) if-else construct
(b) if-else-if construct
Answer
(a) if-else construct
In if-else construct, the user defines the statements to be executed when the condition results
in true or false. If the given condition results in true, the statements in the 'if' block are
executed and if the given condition results in false, the statements in the 'else' block are
executed.
The syntax of if-else construct is as follows:
if(condition)
Statement 1 //executed if condition is true
else
Statement 2 //executed if condition is false
(b) if-else-if construct
It is used when more than one condition are to be evaluated and only one of them is true.
The syntax of if-else-if construct is as follows:
if(condition 1)
Statement 1 //executed if condition 1 is true
else if(condition 2)
Statement 2 //executed if condition 2 is true
else
Statement 3 //executed if both conditions 1 and 2 are
false
When 'condition 1' is 'True' then it will execute statement 1. In case 'condition 1' is false, the
control will move to 'else if' part and will check 'condition 2'. If it is true, the control will
execute 'Statement 2' otherwise it will execute 'Statement 3'.
