Control structures

Control structures are block of statements that analyze the value of variables and determine the flow of execution based on those values. When a program is running, the CPU executes the code line by line. After sometime, the program reaches the point where it has to make a decision on whether it has to go to another part of the code or repeat execution of certain part of the code. These results affect the flow of the program's code and these are called control structures.

Switch Statement

The switch statement is a key feature that is used by the programmers a lot in the world of programming and coding, as well as in information technology in general. The switch statement is a selection control mechanism that allows the variable value to change the order of the individual statements in the software execution via search.

Write multiple if statements: If car_year is before 1967, print "Probably has few safety features." (without quotes). If after 1971, print "Probably has seat belts.". If after 1992, print "Probably has electronic stability control.". If after 2002, print "Probably has tire-pressure monitor.". End each phrase with period and newline. Remember that print() automatically adds a newline. Ex: car_year = 1995 prints: Probably has seat belts. Probably has electronic stability control. This is what I got and it was wrong.... car_year = int(input())carYear = 1995if(carYear < 1967):print('Probably has few safety features.\n')if(carYear > 1971):print("Probably has seat belts.\n")if(carYear > 1992):print("Probably has electronic stability control.\n")if(carYear > 2002):print("Probably has tire-pressure monitor.\n")

1. Using an if/else construct, write a program that will calkulate a person's pay based on the number of hours worked. Take note of the following • The pay rate is Php 35.00 per hour. Any hours worked after 40hrs is paid at the rate of 1.5 times the normal hourly rate. Calculate and display the normal pay, the overtime pay and the total pay • You may test your program using the f test data for the number of hours worked. 35 40 50 2. Modify Work WorkPay.java by replacing the if/else construct with the switch statement. Follow same specifications as indicated above except for the file name. Name this program as Workay2.java. • You may test your program using the f test data for the number of hours worked Rely the answer in no. 1 30 35 40 45 50
1. Consider the following statements: DATAENDFLAG is off; ERROR equals 0; and SUM is less than 1024. Express the following sentences in symbolic notation: (i) DATAENDFLAG is off, ERROR equals 0, and SUM is less than 1024. (ii) (iii) (iv) DATAENDFLAG is off but ERROR is not equal to 0. DATAENDFLAG is off; however, ERROR is not 0 or SUM is greater than or equal to 1024. Either DATAENDFLAG is on or it is not the case that both ERROR equals 0 and SUM is less than 1024. (v) If DATAENDFLAG is off and SUM is less than 1024, then ERROR equals 0.
