C Programming Tutorial - 8 - Switch Statement

[jedoxabelino]

tnx a lot new boston :D i just passed my programming assignment kinda late but this helps me lot.

[taetantantan]

have you made a video with switch,and loopings combined?

[Alexandros5th]

what if I want the program keep asking me to enter number after the break so that I won't need to compile each time to try out a new number?

[Brishaun104]

When you enter in a statement can you punctuate and capitalize?

[Jumbif]

I'm probably gonna learn this soon, but can switch statements be used with sets of characters? (as in you define a variable as "char[4] yesorno", and you can respond differently whether the user entered yes or no)

[bondservant4Him]

@Jumbif its called strings and no not directly you will have to use functions in the string.h library

[GOSUPitZ]

thanks a ton!

[aplummer9670]

You have saved my butt in class! My Professor has totally forgotten what it's like to be a beginner!

... Can't be bothered

[GCCBT17000]

The Viewers are decreasing from part 1 until this part. :D

[Abraham2nd]

@GCCBT17000 can u count? :D

[GCCBT17000]

@Abraham2nd LOL... is that a request? or a challenge? Hahaha...

[Abraham2nd]

@GCCBT17000 erm... lol? 

[WinXPproff]

Thank you again this is realy usefull. You are the best!

[mjolewis7]

How do you enter number ranges? E.g. I want to enter a test case to see if the user enters any number between 90 and 100, inclusive.

[tlarson91119]

After learning C++, this is sooo easy. I just learning C because im working with C and NASM to make programs :D

[jodzjcm]

Thanks, this is very useful.

[kuljotak47]

Since we are using int main(void) you do not have to return 0; because of the void

[bondservant4Him]

@kuljotak47 that is false because function mains return type is int, not void. if it was void main() it would be different.

[jniroshsl]

continue ur works....

[deamon689]

You should always return 0; at the end of your main function.

[Spirrwell]

@deamon689 Logically you could also use exit(0);

[deamon689]

@Spirrwell Granted



[nulledsession]

default: is the equiv of an else statement for switches.

[missle3944]

wat compiler are u using?

[Machado270]

@missle3944 Dev-C++

[dnbStadium]

@missle3944 better to follow the lessons from the beggining.

[vman456]

What are the biggest differences between the switch and if functions?

[TomaCukor]

@vman456 if u meant switch vs if : switch can have more checks . if u meant switch vs if +else if : if u remove the "break" it can test and carry out many things in the same cycle while with an if ur limited to one . its also simpler when u only need to check one variables properties , like input checking

[Jugdesi]

CS50.net

[MrMike3292]

Other tutorials online have said that you should have programs return a value of 0 at the end. Is this true, or is it just a holdover that we don't really need to use?

[Harref2007]

Thanks man ,, i have a an exam tomorow and u healped me allot,,, thanks

:)

[newmen92]

@Harref2007 me too i also have exam tomorow i wonder if we know each other

i want to ask a questions

why can't you write math function like for exampel

case 100 >= 90: printf("you have got A on the test");

i think the problem is with >=

thx ahed

[aghakhannnn]

i want 2 ask questions

[TheJedideah]

what will the program do if i put semi colon aside from colon after the reserved word "case" and the possible number?

[BulletForMyTeachers]

Google Ads sucks!!! They distract me when I am studying X-(

[DevonHartigan]

@BulletForMyTeachers Firefox + Adblocker Plus. Then you don't see google adds no matter what site you visit.

[fractievoorzitter]

I went on the website and I couldn't find this code...

Were exactly did you the codes?

[shdahaal]

please come to Mcgill

[rawliet666]

. . .can this command contains a a whole number with a decimal point??? .i tried but it cannot. .like "2.5,1.7,etc. ,"

[10andrew1012]

@rawliet666

--did u used float instead of int?

[art9000]

nice! explanation ^_^!>...i wish u are my instructor hahha!.... my instructor sucks!...!!

[butzloffrost]

great way of explaining things. very easy to understand :)

[yomanish3011]

[fuckkg]

wats the difference between else if and switch? .... btw great tutorials thnx alot

[cybermaniac11]

so this works like else if

[imaxreelers]

Thanks Bucky! Great job as always! You really make this stuff easy to understand!

[phunagewine]

another epic episode lol.

[TheDarkSagan]

Great video.

[dudedudeshnitzel]

wouldn't you want to put printf("enter a number"); before scanf so they know what to do?

[santa898]

@dudedudeshnitzel He probably doesn't want to take too much of our time :)

But usually, yes, you should add

printf("Enter the number of....");

:)

[ValosTaonas]

Thanks for the video! You are great at teaching this!

[likheng1986]

Hey bucky, i am using Dev-c++ but the DOS window seems to be giving me wrong results. I followed your tutorials exactly as they are, do you know what's the problem? Plus i can't clear the previous program in the DOS simulation.

[steave707]

why do i need a break after executing default??

[Ipodlego56]

I only had a problem at the end the curly bracket "}"

[weroep]
