<p class='vspace'></p><h2>if (conditional) and ==, !=, <, > (comparison operators)</h2>
|
||
|
|
<p><strong><code>if</code></strong>, which is used in conjunction with a comparison operator, tests whether a certain condition has been reached, such as an input being above a certain number. The format for an if test is:
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p class='vspace'></p><pre>if (someVariable > 50)
|
||
|
|
{
|
||
|
|
// do something here
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
</pre>
|
||
|
|
<p class='vspace'></p><p>The program tests to see if someVariable is greater than 50. If it is, the program takes a particular action. Put another way, if the statement in parentheses is true, the statements inside the brackets are run. If not, the program skips over the code.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p class='vspace'></p><p>The brackets may be omitted after an <em>if</em> statement. If this is done, the next line (defined by the semicolon) becomes the only conditional statement.
|
||
|
|
</p><pre>
|

|

|
|
if (x > 120) digitalWrite(LEDpin, HIGH);
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
if (x > 120)
|
||
|
|
digitalWrite(LEDpin, HIGH);
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
if (x > 120){ digitalWrite(LEDpin, HIGH); }
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
if (x > 120){
|
||
|
|
digitalWrite(LEDpin1, HIGH);
|
||
|
|
digitalWrite(LEDpin2, HIGH);
|
||
|
|
} // all are correct
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
</pre>
|
||
|
|
<p class='vspace'></p><p>The statements being evaluated inside the parentheses require the use of one or more operators:
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p class='vspace'></p><h3>Comparison Operators:</h3>
|
||
|
|
<pre> <strong>x == y</strong> (x is equal to y)
|
||
|
|
<strong>x != y</strong> (x is not equal to y)
|
||
|
|
<strong>x < y</strong> (x is less than y)
|
||
|
|
<strong>x > y</strong> (x is greater than y)
|
||
|
|
<strong>x <= y</strong> (x is less than or equal to y)
|
||
|
|
<strong>x >= y</strong> (x is greater than or equal to y)
|
||
|
|
</pre>
|
||
|
|
<p class='vspace'></p><h4>Warning: </h4>
|
||
|
|
<p>Beware of accidentally using the single equal sign (e.g.<code> if (x = 10)</code> ). The single equal sign is the assignment operator, and sets x to 10 (puts the value 10 into the variable x). Instead use the double equal sign (e.g.<code> if (x == 10) </code>), which is the comparison operator, and tests <em>whether</em> x is equal to 10 or not. The latter statement is only true if x equals 10, but the former statement will always be true.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p class='vspace'></p><p>This is because C evaluates the statement <code> if (x=10) </code> as follows: 10 is assigned to x (remember that the single equal sign is the <a class='wikilink' href='Assignment.html'>assignment operator</a>), so x now contains 10. Then the 'if' conditional evaluates 10, which always evaluates to TRUE, since any non-zero number evaluates to TRUE. Consequently, <code>if (x = 10)</code> will always evaluate to TRUE, which is not the desired result when using an 'if' statement. Additionally, the variable x will be set to 10, which is also not a desired action.

<p class='vspace'></p><p><strong>if</strong> can also be part of a branching control structure using the <a class='wikilink' href='Else.html'>if...else</a>] construction.
