Decision Making and Branching

Conditional Statements
Branching: if Statement
Example
Branching: if - else Statement
 Sample Program: Grade Calculation
//Program showing the use of if-else

#include<stdio.h>

int main()

int marks;

printf("\n enter the marks:");

scanf("%d",&marks);

if (marks >= 80)

printf ("A\n") ;

printf("Good Job Done");

else if (marks >= 70)

printf ("B") ;

else if (marks >= 60)

printf ("C") ;

else

printf ("Failed\n") ;

printf("Study Hard");

return 0;

}
Find Larger of Two Numbers
//Larger of two numbers
#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
int x,y;
printf("\n enter two numbers:");
scanf("%d%d",&x,&y);
if (x>y)
printf("%d is larger",x);
else
printf("%d is larger",y);
return 0;
}
Largest of three numbers
//Largest of three numbers
#include<stdio.h> //Largest of three numbers
int main() #include<stdio.h>
{ int main()
{
int x,y,z; int x,y,z;
printf("\n enter the three numbers:"); printf("\n enter the three numbers:");
scanf("%d%d%d",&x,&y,&z); scanf("%d%d%d",&x,&y,&z);
if ((x >= y) && (x >= z))
int max; printf ("\n The largest number is: %d",
if (x>=y) x);
max=x; if ((y >= x) && (y >= z))
printf ("\n The largest number is: %d",
else y);
max=y; if ((z >= x) && (z >= y))
if (max>=z) printf ("\n The largest number is: %d",
z);
printf("%d is largest",max); return 0;
else }
printf("%d is largest",z);
return 0;
