Nested if and Multi-Way if-else Statements

Image
Nested if and Multi-Way if-else Statements:           An if statement can be nested inside another if statement, forming a nested if statement. This allows for more complex decision-making in a program.           In a nested if statement, an if statement is placed inside another if statement. The inner if statement is considered to be nested within the outer if statement. There is no limit to the depth of nesting and an inner if statement can also contain another if statement.           Here is an example of a nested if statement: if (i > k) {     if (j > k)         System.out.println("i and j are greater than k"); } else {     System.out.println("i is less than or equal to k"); }           In this example, the inner if statement ` if (j > k) ` is nested inside the outer if statement ` if (i > k) `. This allows for di...

Named constants and naming conventions

Named constants:           During the execution of a program, the value of a variable can be altered, whereas a named constant, or simply a constant, represents data that remains unchanged permanently. In our "ComputeArea" program, the constant "PI" retains its value consistently. To avoid repeatedly typing the value "3.14159" for "PI," it is possible to declare a constant for it. The following syntax is used to declare a constant: final datatype CONSTANTNAME = value;           A constant must be declared and initialized in the same statement. The keyword " final " in Java is used to declare a constant. For example, "PI" can be declared as a constant.           The code for the "ComputeAreaWithConstant"   import java.util.Scanner; public class ComputeAreaWithConstant {     public static void main(String[] args) {         final double PI = 3.14159; // Declare a con...
