| 00.01 | Welcome to the spoken tutorial on Conditional Branching in Scilab. |
| 00.04 | To practice this tutorial open the scilab console window on your computer |
| 00.09 | We will discuss two types of Conditional constructs in Scilab that is the "if-then-else" construct and the "select-case conditional" construct. |
| 00.19 | The if statement allows us to execute a group of statements if a given condition is satisfied. |
| 00.24 | Let me give you an example: |
| 00.27 | n is equal 42 if n is equal to equal to 42 then disp the number is 42, end of if construct. |
| 00.37 | Here 'is equal to' is the assignment operator, which assigns 42 to the variable n, |
| 00.43 | And 'is equal to is equal to' is the equality operator, which checks for the equality between the right hand and the left hand side operands. |
| 00.51 | In this case n and 42 and gives the result in Boolean. |
| 00.57 | Here the comma after the first line is optional, |
| 01.01 | Also the then keyword is optional. |
| 01.04 | It can be replaced by a comma or a carriage return. |
| 01.08 | The end keyword ends the "if" construct. |
| 01.11 | On executing the script, we see the output as follows. |
| 01.20 | So far we have seen how to execute a set of statements if a condition is true. |
| 01.26 | Now we will see how to execute another set of statements if that condition is false or we may wish to check if some other condition is satisfied. |
| 01.36 | We can do this by using 'else' or 'elseif' keyword respectively. |
| 01.40 | Here is how we do it
|
| 01.41 | In this example, 54 is assigned to a variable n and checked for both true condition using 'if' and false condition using 'else' as described: |
| 01.55 | I will cut this, paste in the scilab console hit enter |
| 02.03 | You see the output. |
| 02.05 | If you notice, the examples shown above are on multiple lines. |
| 02.09 | They can also be written in a single line with proper semicolons and commas. |
| 02.19 | I will cut this and paste in the scilab to execute. Hit enter |
| 02.27 | The select statement allows to combine several branches in a clear and simple way. |
| 02.31 | Depending on the value of a variable, it allows to perform the statement corresponding to the case keyword. |
| 02.38 | There can be as many branches as required. |
| 02.41 | Let us try with an example. |
| 02.44 | We will assign 100 to a variable 'n' and check the cases 42, 54 and a default case represented by else. |
| 02.59 | Cut, paste hit enter |
| 03.06 | Here we see the output . |
| 03.09 | This brings us to the end of this spoken tutorial on Conditional Branching using Scilab. |
| 03.14 | In this tutorial we have learnt the if - elseif - else statement and the select statement. |
| 03.20 | There are many other functions in Scilab which will be covered in other spoken tutorials. |
| 03.25 | Keep watching the Scilab links. |
| 03.27 | Spoken Tutorials are part of the Talk to a Teacher project, supported by the National Mission on Education through ICT. |
| 03.35 | More information on the same is available on the following link |
| 03.38 | Thanks for joining good bye. |
