Decision Making in Java
Decision making structures have one or more conditions to be evaluated or tested by the program, along with a statement or statements that are to be executed if the condition is determined to be true, and optionally, other statements to be executed if the condition is determined to be false.
Following is the general form of a typical decision-making structure found in most of the programming languages −
Java programming language provides the following types of decision-making statements. Click the following links to check their detail.
Sr.No. | Statement & Description |
---|---|
1 | if statement An if statement consists of a boolean expression followed by one or more statements. |
2 | if...else statement An if statement can be followed by an optional else statement, which executes when the boolean expression is false. |
3 | nested if statement You can use one if or else if statement inside another if or else if statement(s). |

The ? : Operator
Have we covered a conditional operator? : in the previous chapter which can be used to replace if...else statements. It has the following general form −
Exp1? Exp2: Exp3;
Where Exp1, Exp2, and Exp3 are expressions. Notice the use and placement of the colon.
To determine the value of the whole expression, initially, exp1 is evaluated.
If the value of exp1 is true, then the value of Exp2 will be the value of the whole expression.
If the value of exp1 is false, then Exp3 is evaluated and its value becomes the value of the entire expression.
