00:01 | Welcome to the spoken tutorial on Relational Operators in Java. |
00:07 | In this tutorial, we will learn about the |
00:09 | boolean data type |
00:10 | Relational operators and |
00:12 | how to compare data using Relational operators. |
00:17 | For this tutorial, we are using
Ubuntu 11.10, JDK 1.6 and Eclipse 3.7 |
00:26 | To follow this tutorial, you must have knowledge of data types in Java. |
00:31 | If not, for relevant tutorials, please visit our website as shown. |
00:39 | Relational operators are used to check for conditions. |
00:43 | Their output is a variable of boolean data type |
00:48 | A boolean data type is of size 1 bit. |
00:51 | It stores only two values. |
00:54 | True or False. |
00:56 | True is the output when the condition is true. |
00:59 | False is the output if the condition is not true. |
01:06 | Here is a list of the Relational operators available. |
01:10 | * greater than |
01:12 | * less than |
01:13 | * equal to |
00:14 | * greater than or equal to |
01:15 | * less than or equal to |
01:17 | * not equal to |
01:19 | We shall look into each of them in detail. |
01:22 | Switch to Eclipse. |
01:27 | Here we have the Eclipse IDE and the skeleton required for the rest of the code. |
01:33 | I have created a class BooleanDemo and added the Main method. |
01:38 | Now let us add some expressions. |
01:41 | Type boolean b ; |
01:47 | The keyword boolean declares the data type of the variable b as boolean. |
01:53 | We shall store the result of our condition in b. |
01:58 | We shall define a variable weight and check for a condition using that variable. |
02:05 | int weight equal to 45; |
02:13 | We shall check if the value in weight is greater than 40. |
02:18 | b equal to weight greater than 40; |
02:28 | This statement says check if the value of variable is greater than 40 and store the result in 'b'; |
02:37 | Now Let us print the value of 'b'. |
02:41 | System dot out dot println(b); |
02:49 | Save and Run. |
02:59 | As we can see, the output is True. |
03:02 | Let us see what happens if the value is less than 40. |
03:07 | Change weight to 30. |
03:12 | Save and run. |
03:20 | We can see that the output is False as expected. |
03:24 | This way, the greater than symbol is used to check if one value is greater than the other. |
03:30 | Similarly, less than symbol is used to check if one value is less than the other. |
03:37 | let us change thegreater than to less than symbol. |
03:43 | So, We are checking if the value of weight is less than 40. |
03:48 | Save, Run. |
03:56 | As we can see, the output is True as expected. |
04:01 | Let us change the value of weight to 45 and see the output. |
04:09 | Save and Run. |
04:16 | We see that we get a False because the condition, |
04:21 | weight less than 40 is not true. |
04:25 | Now let us see how to check if a value is equal to another. |
04:31 | To do that, we use two equal to symbols. |
04:35 | Change less than symbol to double equal to. |
04:41 | Save and Run. |
04:48 | As we can see, the output is False because the value of weight is not equal to 40. |
04:55 | Now let us change the weight to 40 and see the output. |
05:01 | Save and Run. |
05:08 | As we can see, the output is True. |
05:12 | This way, double equal to is used for checking equality. |
05:16 | Please be careful because, often people use a single equal to symbol for checking equality. |
05:22 | And this gives unnecessary errors. |
05:26 | Next we'll see how to check for less than or equal to. |
05:30 | To do that, we will use a less than symbol followed by an equal to symbol. |
05:35 | Change the double equal to, to less than equal to. |
05:42 | Save and Run. |
05:50 | The output is True as expected. |
05:53 | Now let us change the value of weight to see if the less than check is performed. |
05:59 | Change 40 to 30. |
06:04 | Save and Run. |
06:14 | We see, that although the weight is not equal to 40 we get the output as True because it is less than 40. |
06:22 | Let us see what happens if the value of weight is greater than 40. |
06:27 | Let's say 50. Save and Run. |
06:39 | As we can see, the output is False because the value of weight is not equal to 40. |
06:44 | And it also not less than 40. |
06:48 | Similarly, we use a greater than symbol followed by an equal to symbol for checking greater than or equal to. |
06:55 | Let us try it. |
06:57 | Change less than equal to to greater than equal to. |
07:04 | Save and Run. |
07:10 | As we can see, the output is true because weight is greater than 40 |
07: 16 | Let us change weight to a value less than 40. Let's say 30. |
07:25 | Save and Run. |
07:32 | We get a false because the value of weight is not greater than 40 and also not equal to 40. |
07:39 | Next, we’ll see how to check for not equal to. |
07:46 | It is done by using an exclamation mark followed by an equal to symbol. |
07:53 | Change greater than to exclamation . |
07:59 | So this statement says check if the value of weight is not equal to 40 and store the result in b. |
08:08 | Save and Run. |
08:16 | As we can see, the output is true because the values of weight is not equal to 40. |
08:23 | Let us change the weight to 40 and see the output. |
08:28 | Change 30 to 40. |
08:31 | Save, Run. |
08:38 | We get a false because the condition weight not equal to 40 is false. |
08:45 | The not equal to condition can be thought of as opposite of equal to condition. |
08:50 | This is how we use the various relational operators to compare data in Java. |
08:58 | This brings us to the end of this tutorial. |
09:01 | In this tutorial we have learnt about: the boolean data type |
09:06 | the relational operators and |
09:08 | how to use relational operators to compare data. |
09:13 | As an assignment for this tutorial, find out if the two expressions shown are equivalent. |
