Flow of Control
is Sequential unless a,control structure” is
used to change that
there are 2 general types of control structures:
Selection (also called branching)
Repetition (also called looping)

Logic Expression
A logic expression (Boolean expression) is made up of
logical values and operations.
Every logical expression has one of two values,true or false.
Here are some examples:
i,A Boolean variable or constant
ii.An expression followed by a relational operator
followed by an expression
iii,A logical expression followed by a logical operator
followed by a logical expression
7
bool Data Type
type bool is a built-in type consisting of just 2
values,the constants true and false
True and false are reserved words in C++,not
variable names or string
we can declare variables of type bool
bool hasFever; // true if has high temperature
bool isSenior; // true if age is at least 55
8
The operators used in logical expressions
6 Relational Operators
< <= > >= == !=
3 Logical Operators
! && ||
9
are used in expressions of form:
ExpressionA Operator ExpressionB
For example:
temperature > humidity
B * B - 4.0 * A * C > 0.0
abs (number ) == 35
initial !=?Q?
6 Relational Operators
10
int x,y ;
x = 4;
y = 6;
EXPRESSION VALUE
x < y true
x + 2 < y false
x != y true
x + 3 >= y true
y == x false
y == x+2 true
y = x + 3 7 (true)
Caution,Don’t confuse the assignment operator (=)
and the relational operator (==).
11
In C++
the value 0 represents false
ANY non-zero value represents true
12
Comparing Strings
two objects of type string (or a string object and a
C string) can be compared using the relational
operators
a character-by-character comparison is made
using the ASCII character set values
if all the characters are equal,then the 2 strings
are equal,Otherwise,the string with the character
with smaller ASCII value is the,lesser” string
13
string myState;
string yourState;
myState =,Texas”;
yourState =,Maryland”;
EXPRESSION VALUE
myState == yourState false
myState > yourState true
myState ==,Texas” true
myState <,texas” true why?
Caution:all of the uppercase letters come before the
lowercase letters.

LOGICAL
EXPRESSION MEANING DESCRIPTION
! p NOT p ! p is false if p is true
! p is true if p is false
p && q p AND q p && q is true if
both p and q are true,
It is false otherwise.
p || q p OR q p || q is true if either
p or q or both are true,
It is false otherwise.
16
int age ;
bool isSenior,hasFever ;
float temperature ;
age = 20;
temperature = 102.0 ;
isSenior = (age >= 55) ; // isSenior is false
hasFever = (temperature > 98.6) ; // hasFever is true
EXPRESSION VALUE
isSenior && hasFever false
isSenior || hasFever true
! isSenior true
! hasFever false
17
What is the value?
int age,height;
age = 25;
height = 70;
EXPRESSION VALUE
!(age < 10)?
!(height > 60)?
18
,Short-Circuit” Evaluation
C++ uses short circuit evaluation of logical
expressions
this means logical expressions are evaluated
left to right and evaluation stops as soon as
the final truth value can be determined
19
Short-Circuit Example
int age,height;
age = 25;
height = 70;
EXPRESSION
(age > 50) && (height > 60)
false
Evaluation can stop now because result of && is only
true when both sides are true,It is already determined
that the entire expression will be false.
20
More Short-Circuiting
int age,height;
age = 25;
height = 70;
EXPRESSION
(height > 60) || (age > 40)
true
Evaluation can stop now because result of || is true
if one side is true,It is already determined that the
entire expression will be true.
21
What happens?
int age,weight;
age = 25;
weight = 145;
EXPRESSION
(weight < 180) && (age >= 20)
true
Must still be evaluated because truth value
of entire expression is not yet known,Why?
Result of && is only true if both sides are
true.
22
What happens?
int age,height;
age = 25;
height = 70;
EXPRESSION
! (height > 60) || (age > 50)
true
false
Does this part need to be evaluated?
23
Write an expression for each
taxRate is over 25% and income is less than
$20000
temperature is less than or equal to 75 or
humidity is less than 70%
age is over 21 and age is less than 60
age is 21 or 22
24
Some Answers
(taxRate >,25) && (income < 20000)
(temperature <= 75) || (humidity <,70)
(age > 21) && (age < 60)
(age == 21) || (age == 22)
25
Precedence Chart

26
Use Precedence Chart
int number ;

What happens if Number has value 0?
Run Time Error (Division by zero) occurs.
27
Short-Circuit Benefits
one Boolean expression can be placed
first to,guard” a potentially unsafe
operation in a second Boolean
expression
time is saved in evaluation of complex
expressions using operators || and &&
28
Our Example Revisited
int number;
float x;
( number != 0) && ( x < 1 / number )
is evaluated first and has value false
Because operator is &&,the entire expression
will have value false,Due to short-circuiting
the right side is not evaluated in C++,
29
WARNING about Expressions in C++
,Boolean expression” means an expression
whose value is true or false
an expression is any valid combination of
operators and operands
each expression has a value
this can lead to UNEXPECTED RESULTS
construct your expressions CAREFULLY
use of parentheses is encouraged
otherwise,use precedence chart to determine
order
30
What went wrong?
This is only supposed to display,HEALTHY AIR” if
the air quality index is between 50 and 80.
But when you tested it,it displayed,HEALTHY AIR”
when the index was 35.
int AQIndex ;
AQIndex = 35 ;
if (50 < AQIndex < 80)
cout <<,HEALTHY AIR” ;
31
Analysis of Situation
AQIndex = 35;
According to the precedence chart,the expression
(50 < AQIndex < 80) means
(50 < AQIndex) < 80 because < is Left Associative
(50 < AQIndex) is false (has value 0)
(0 < 80) is true.
32
Corrected Version
int AQIndex ;
AQIndex = 35 ;
if ( (50 < AQIndex) && (AQIndex < 80) )
cout <<,HEALTHY AIR” ;
33
Comparing float Values
do not compare float values for equality,
compare them for near-equality.
float myNumber;
float yourNumber;
cin >> myNumber;
cin >> yourNumber;
if ( fabs (myNumber - yourNumber) < 0.00001 )
cout <<,They are close enough!” << endl;
34
Flow of Control
the order in which program
statements are executed
THE 3 POSSIBILITIES ARE:
Sequential
Selection Control Structure
Loop Control Structure
35
Selection statements
are used to choose an action
depending on the current situation
in your program as it is running
36
What can go wrong here?
float average;
float total;
int howMany;
.
.
.
average = total / howMany;
37
Improved Version
float average,
float total;
int howMany;
if ( howMany > 0 )
{
average = total / howMany;
cout << average;
}
else
cout <<,No prices were entered”;
38
if ( Expression )
StatementA
else
StatementB
NOTE,StatementA and StatementB each can
be a single statement,a null statement,or a
block.
If-Then-Else Syntax
39
if,.,else provides two-way selection
between executing one of 2 clauses (the if
clause or the else clause)
TRUE FALSE
if clause else clause

40
Use of blocks recommended
if ( Expression )
{
}
else
{
}
,if clause”
,else clause”
41
int carDoors,driverAge ;
float premium,monthlyPayment ;
.,,
if ( (carDoors == 4 ) && (driverAge > 24) )
{
premium = 650.00 ;
cout <<,LOW RISK,;
}
else
{
premium = 1200.00 ;
cout <<,HIGH RISK,;
}
monthlyPayment = premium / 12.0 + 5.00 ;
42
What happens if you omit braces?
if ( (carDoors == 4 ) && (driverAge > 24) )
premium = 650.00 ;
cout <<,LOW RISK,;
else
premium = 1200.00 ;
cout <<,HIGH RISK,;
monthlyPayment = premium / 12.0 + 5.00 ;
COMPILE ERROR OCCURS,The,if clause” is the single
statement following the if.
43
Braces can only be omitted when
each clause is a single statement
if ( lastInitial <=?K? )
volume = 1;
else
volume = 2;
cout <<,Look it up in volume #,
<< volume <<,of NYC phone book”;

else
cout <<,An?A? was found in position,<< pos << endl ;
45
If-Then-Else for a mail order
Assign value,25 to discountRate and
assign value 10.00 to shipCost if
purchase is over 100.00
Otherwise,assign value,15 to
discountRate and assign value 5.00 to
shipCost
Either way,calculate totalBill
46
These braces cannot be omitted
if ( purchase > 100.00 )
{
discountRate =,25 ;
shipCost = 10.00 ;
}
else
{
discountRate =,15 ;
shipCost = 5.00 ;
}
totalBill = purchase * (1.0 - discountRate) + shipCost ;

Terminating your program
int number ;
cout <<,Enter a non-zero number,;
cin >> number ;
if (number == 0 )
{
cout <<,Bad input,Program terminated,;
return 1 ;
}
// otherwise continue processing
50
if (number == 0 ) if ( ! number )
{,{,
.,
.,
.,
} }
Each expression is only true when number
has value 0.
These are equivalent,Why?
51
Write If-Then or If-Then-Else for each
If taxCode is?T?,increase price by adding
taxRate times price to it.
If code has value 1,read values for income
and taxRate from myInfile,and calculate
and display taxDue as their product,
If A is strictly between 0 and 5,set B equal
to 1/A,otherwise set B equal to A.
52
Some Answers
if (taxCode ==?T?)
price = price + taxRate * price;
if ( code == 1)
{
myInfile >> income >> taxRate;
taxDue = income * taxRate;
cout << taxDue;
}
53
Remaining Answer
if ( ( A > 0 ) && (A < 5) )
B = 1/A;
else
B = A;
54
What output? and Why?
int age;
age = 20;
if ( age = 16 )

int age;
age = 30;
if ( age < 18 )
cout <<,Do you drive?”;

if ( number = 0 )
cout <<,Zero value”;
else
cout <<,Non-zero value”;
58
Both the if clause and the else clause
of an if...else statement
can contain any kind of statement,
including another selection statement.
Nested If Statement
59
Multi-alternative Selection
is also called multi-way branching,and
can be accomplished by using NESTED
if statements.
60
if ( Expression1 )
Statement1
else if ( Expression2 )
Statement2
,
.
.
else if ( ExpressionN )
StatementN
else
Statement N+1
EXACTLY one of these statements will be executed.
Nested if Statements
61
Nested if Statements
Each Expression is evaluated in sequence,until
some Expression is found that is true,
Only the specific Statement following that particular
true Expression is executed.
If no Expression is true,the Statement following the
final else is executed.
Actually,the final else and final Statement are
optional,If omitted,and no Expression is true,
then no Statement is executed.
AN EXAMPLE,,,
62
if ( creditsEarned >= 90 )
cout <<,SENIOR STATUS”;
else if ( creditsEarned >= 60 )
cout <<,JUNIOR STATUS,;
else if ( creditsEarned >= 30 )
cout <<,SOPHOMORE STATUS,;
else
cout <<,FRESHMAN STATUS,;
Multi-way Branching
63
Writing Nested if Statements
Display one word to describe the int value
of number as,Positive”,“Negative”,or
“Zero”
Your city classifies a pollution index
less than 35 as,Pleasant”,
35 through 60 as,Unpleasant”,
and above 60 as,Health Hazard.”
Display the correct description of the
pollution index value.
64
One Answer
if (number > 0)
cout <<,Positive”;
else if (number < 0)
cout <<,Negative”;
else
cout <<,Zero”;
65
Other Answer
if ( index < 35 )
cout <<,Pleasant”;
else if ( index <= 60 )
cout <<,Unpleasant”;
else
cout <<,Health Hazard”;
66
Write a void Function
called DisplayMessage which you can call
from main to describe the pollution index
value it receives as an argument.
Your city describes a pollution index
less than 35 as,Pleasant”,
35 through 60 as,Unpleasant”,
and above 60 as,Health Hazard.”
67
void DisplayMessage( int index )
{
if ( index < 35 )
cout <<,Pleasant”;
else if ( index <= 60 )
cout <<,Unpleasant”;
else
cout <<,Health Hazard”;
}
68
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
void DisplayMessage (int); // declare function
int main (void)
{
int pollutionIndex; // declare variable
cout <<,Enter air pollution index”;
cin >> pollutionIndex;
DisplayMessage(pollutionIndex); // call
return 0;
}

Using selection
Every Monday thru Friday you go to class.
When it is raining you take an umbrella.
But on the weekend,what you do depends on
the weather.
If it is raining you read in bed,Otherwise,you
have fun outdoors.
70
// program tells how to spend your day
#include < iostream >
using namespace std;
void main ( void )
{ int day;
char raining;
cout <<,Enter day (use 1 for Sunday)”;
cin >> day;
cout <<,Is it raining? (Y/N)”;
cin >> raining;
71
if ( ( day == 1) || (day == 7) ) // Sat or
Sun
{ if (raining ==?Y?)
cout <<,Read in bed”;
else
cout <<,Have fun outdoors”;
}
else
{ cout <<,Go to class,;
if (raining ==?Y?)
cout <<,Take an umbrella”;
}
}
72
In the absence of braces,
an else is always paired
with the closest preceding if that doesn’t
already have an else paired with it.
73
Bad Example has output,FAIL
float average;
average = 100.0;
if ( average >= 60.0 )
if ( average < 70.0 )
cout <<,Marginal PASS”;
else
cout <<,FAIL”;
WHY? The compiler ignores indentation
and pairs the else with the second if,
average
100.0
74
To correct the problem,
use braces
float average;
average = 100.0;
if ( average >= 60.0 )
{
if ( average < 70.0 )
cout <<,Marginal PASS”;
}
else
cout <<,FAIL”;
average
100.0
75
Each I/O stream has a state (condition)
An input stream enters fail state when you
try to read invalid input data
try to open a file which does not exist
try to read beyond the end of the file
An output stream enters fail state when you
try to create a file with an invalid name
try to create a file on a write-protected disk
try to create a file on a full disk
76
How can you tell the state?
The stream identifier can be used as if it
were a Boolean variable,It has value false
(meaning the last I/O operation on that
stream failed) when the stream is in fail
state.
When you use a file stream,you should
check on its state.
77
Checking on the State
ofstream myOutfile;
myOutfile.open (“A:\\myOut.dat”);
if ( ! myOutfile )
{
cout <<,File opening error.,
<<,Program terminated.” << endl;
return 1;
}
// otherwise send output to myOutfile
78
Testing Selection Control Structures
to test a program with branches,use
enough data sets so that every
branch is executed at least once
this is called minimum complete
coverage
79
Testing Often Combines Two Approaches
WHITE BOX BLACK BOX
TESTING TESTING
Code Coverage
Allows us to see the
program code while
designing the tests,
so that data values at
the boundaries,and
possibly middle values,
can be tested.
Data Coverage
Tries to test as many
allowable data values as
possible without regard
to program code.
80
How to Test a Program
design and implement a test plan
a test plan is a document that specifies
the test cases to try,the reason for each,
and the expected output
implement the test plan by verifying that
the program outputs the predicted
results

11
In C++
the value 0 represents false
ANY non-zero value represents true
12
Comparing Strings
two objects of type string (or a string object and a

,Short-Circuit” Evaluation
C++ uses short circuit evaluation of logical
expressions
this means logical expressions are evaluated
left to right and evaluation stops as soon as
the final truth value can be determined
19
Short-Circuit Example
int age,height;
age = 25;
height = 70;
EXPRESSION
(age > 50) && (height > 60)
false
Evaluation can stop now because result of && is only
true when both sides are true,It is already determined
that the entire expression will be false.
20
More Short-Circuiting
int age,height;
age = 25;
height = 70;
EXPRESSION
(height > 60) || (age > 40)
true
Evaluation can stop now because result of || is true
if one side is true,It is already determined that the
entire expression will be true.
21
What happens?
int age,weight;
age = 25;
weight = 145;
EXPRESSION
(weight < 180) && (age >= 20)
true
Must still be evaluated because truth value
of entire expression is not yet known,Why?
Result of && is only true if both sides are
true.
22
What happens?
int age,height;
age = 25;
height = 70;
EXPRESSION
! (height > 60) || (age > 50)

24
Some Answers

(50 < AQIndex < 80) means
(50 < AQIndex) < 80 because < is Left Associative
(50 < AQIndex) is false (has value 0)
(0 < 80) is true.
32
Corrected Version
int AQIndex ;
AQIndex = 35 ;
if ( (50 < AQIndex) && (AQIndex < 80) )
cout <<,HEALTHY AIR” ;
33
Comparing float Values
do not compare float values for equality,
compare them for near-equality.
float myNumber;
float yourNumber;
cin >> myNumber;
cin >> yourNumber;
if ( fabs (myNumber - yourNumber) < 0.00001 )
cout <<,They are close enough!” << endl;
34
Flow of Control
the order in which program
statements are executed
THE 3 POSSIBILITIES ARE:
Sequential
Selection Control Structure
Loop Control Structure
35
Selection statements
are used to choose an action
depending on the current situation
in your program as it is running
36
What can go wrong here?
float average;
float total;
int howMany;
.
.
.
average = total / howMany;
37
Improved Version
float average,
float total;
int howMany;
if ( howMany > 0 )
{
average = total / howMany;
cout << average;
}
else
cout <<,No prices were entered”;
38
if ( Expression )
StatementA
else
StatementB
NOTE,StatementA and StatementB each can
be a single statement,a null statement,or a
block.
If-Then-Else Syntax
39
if,.,else provides two-way selection
between executing one of 2 clauses (the if
clause or the else clause)
TRUE FALSE
if clause else clause
expression
40
Use of blocks recommended
if ( Expression )
{
}
else
{
}
,if clause”
,else clause”
41
int carDoors,driverAge ;
float premium,monthlyPayment ;
.,,
if ( (carDoors == 4 ) && (driverAge > 24) )
{
premium = 650.00 ;
cout <<,LOW RISK,;
}
else
{
premium = 1200.00 ;
cout <<,HIGH RISK,;
}
monthlyPayment = premium / 12.0 + 5.00 ;
42
What happens if you omit braces?
if ( (carDoors == 4 ) && (driverAge > 24) )
premium = 650.00 ;
cout <<,LOW RISK,;
else
premium = 1200.00 ;
cout <<,HIGH RISK,;
monthlyPayment = premium / 12.0 + 5.00 ;
COMPILE ERROR OCCURS,The,if clause” is the single
statement following the if.
43
Braces can only be omitted when
each clause is a single statement
if ( lastInitial <=?K? )
volume = 1;
else
volume = 2;
cout <<,Look it up in volume #,
<< volume <<,of NYC phone book”;
44
Determining where the first?A?
was found in a string
string myString ;
string::size_type pos;
.,,
pos = myString.find(?A?);
if ( pos == string::npos )
cout <<,No?A? was found,<< endl ;
else
cout <<,An?A? was found in position,<< pos << endl ;

If-Then-Else for a mail order
Assign value,25 to discountRate and
assign value 10.00 to shipCost if
purchase is over 100.00
Otherwise,assign value,15 to
discountRate and assign value 5.00 to
shipCost
Either way,calculate totalBill
46
These braces cannot be omitted
if ( purchase > 100.00 )
{
discountRate =,25 ;
shipCost = 10.00 ;
}
else
{
discountRate =,15 ;
shipCost = 5.00 ;
}
totalBill = purchase * (1.0 - discountRate) + shipCost ;

If-Then statement is a selection
of whether or not to execute a statement (which
can be a single statement or an entire block)

Terminating your program
int number ;
cout <<,Enter a non-zero number,;
cin >> number ;
if (number == 0 )
{
cout <<,Bad input,Program terminated,;
return 1 ;
}
// otherwise continue processing
50
if (number == 0 ) if ( ! number )
{,{,
.,
.,
.,
} }
Each expression is only true when number
has value 0.
These are equivalent,Why?
51
Write If-Then or If-Then-Else for each
If taxCode is?T?,increase price by adding
taxRate times price to it.
If code has value 1,read values for income
and taxRate from myInfile,and calculate
and display taxDue as their product,
If A is strictly between 0 and 5,set B equal
to 1/A,otherwise set B equal to A.
52
Some Answers
if (taxCode ==?T?)
price = price + taxRate * price;
if ( code == 1)
{
myInfile >> income >> taxRate;
taxDue = income * taxRate;
cout << taxDue;
}
53
Remaining Answer
if ( ( A > 0 ) && (A < 5) )
B = 1/A;
else
B = A;

Both the if clause and the else clause
of an if...else statement
can contain any kind of statement,
including another selection statement.
Nested If Statement
59
Multi-alternative Selection
is also called multi-way branching,and
can be accomplished by using NESTED
if statements.
60
if ( Expression1 )
Statement1
else if ( Expression2 )
Statement2
,
.
.
else if ( ExpressionN )
StatementN
else
Statement N+1
EXACTLY one of these statements will be executed.
Nested if Statements
61
Nested if Statements
Each Expression is evaluated in sequence,until
some Expression is found that is true,
Only the specific Statement following that particular
true Expression is executed.
If no Expression is true,the Statement following the
final else is executed.
Actually,the final else and final Statement are
optional,If omitted,and no Expression is true,
then no Statement is executed.
AN EXAMPLE,,,
62
if ( creditsEarned >= 90 )
cout <<,SENIOR STATUS”;
else if ( creditsEarned >= 60 )
cout <<,JUNIOR STATUS,;
else if ( creditsEarned >= 30 )
cout <<,SOPHOMORE STATUS,;
else
cout <<,FRESHMAN STATUS,;
Multi-way Branching
63
Writing Nested if Statements
Display one word to describe the int value
of number as,Positive”,“Negative”,or
“Zero”
Your city classifies a pollution index
less than 35 as,Pleasant”,
35 through 60 as,Unpleasant”,
and above 60 as,Health Hazard.”
Display the correct description of the
pollution index value.
64
One Answer
if (number > 0)
cout <<,Positive”;
else if (number < 0)
cout <<,Negative”;
else
cout <<,Zero”;
65
Other Answer
if ( index < 35 )
cout <<,Pleasant”;
else if ( index <= 60 )
cout <<,Unpleasant”;
else
cout <<,Health Hazard”;
66
Write a void Function
called DisplayMessage which you can call
from main to describe the pollution index
value it receives as an argument.
Your city describes a pollution index
less than 35 as,Pleasant”,
35 through 60 as,Unpleasant”,
and above 60 as,Health Hazard.”
67
void DisplayMessage( int index )
{
if ( index < 35 )
cout <<,Pleasant”;
else if ( index <= 60 )
cout <<,Unpleasant”;
else
cout <<,Health Hazard”;
}
68
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
void DisplayMessage (int); // declare function
int main (void)
{
int pollutionIndex; // declare variable
cout <<,Enter air pollution index”;
cin >> pollutionIndex;
DisplayMessage(pollutionIndex); // call
return 0;
}

Using selection
Every Monday thru Friday you go to class.
When it is raining you take an umbrella.
But on the weekend,what you do depends on
the weather.
If it is raining you read in bed,Otherwise,you
have fun outdoors.
70
// program tells how to spend your day
#include < iostream >
using namespace std;
void main ( void )
{ int day;
char raining;
cout <<,Enter day (use 1 for Sunday)”;
cin >> day;
cout <<,Is it raining? (Y/N)”;
cin >> raining;
71
if ( ( day == 1) || (day == 7) ) // Sat or
Sun
{ if (raining ==?Y?)
cout <<,Read in bed”;
else
cout <<,Have fun outdoors”;
}
else
{ cout <<,Go to class,;
if (raining ==?Y?)
cout <<,Take an umbrella”;
}
}
72
In the absence of braces,
an else is always paired
with the closest preceding if that doesn’t
already have an else paired with it.
73
Bad Example has output,FAIL
float average;
average = 100.0;
if ( average >= 60.0 )
if ( average < 70.0 )
cout <<,Marginal PASS”;
else
cout <<,FAIL”;
WHY? The compiler ignores indentation
and pairs the else with the second if,
average
100.0
74
To correct the problem,
use braces
float average;
average = 100.0;
if ( average >= 60.0 )
{
if ( average < 70.0 )
cout <<,Marginal PASS”;
}
else
cout <<,FAIL”;
average
100.0
75
Each I/O stream has a state (condition)
An input stream enters fail state when you
try to read invalid input data
try to open a file which does not exist
try to read beyond the end of the file
An output stream enters fail state when you
try to create a file with an invalid name
try to create a file on a write-protected disk
try to create a file on a full disk
76
How can you tell the state?
The stream identifier can be used as if it
were a Boolean variable,It has value false
(meaning the last I/O operation on that
stream failed) when the stream is in fail
state.
When you use a file stream,you should
check on its state.
77
Checking on the State
ofstream myOutfile;
myOutfile.open (“A:\\myOut.dat”);
if ( ! myOutfile )
{
cout <<,File opening error.,
<<,Program terminated.” << endl;
return 1;
}
// otherwise send output to myOutfile
78
Testing Selection Control Structures
to test a program with branches,use
enough data sets so that every
branch is executed at least once
this is called minimum complete
coverage
79
Testing Often Combines Two Approaches
WHITE BOX BLACK BOX
TESTING TESTING
Code Coverage
Allows us to see the
program code while
designing the tests,
so that data values at
the boundaries,and
possibly middle values,
can be tested.
Data Coverage
Tries to test as many
allowable data values as
possible without regard
to program code.
80
How to Test a Program
design and implement a test plan
a test plan is a document that specifies
the test cases to try,the reason for each,
and the expected output
implement the test plan by verifying that
the program outputs the predicted
results
