Logical if Statements
• We previously examined if statements in Excel:
IF(condition, value if true, value if false)• Since there are different values corresponding to
true and false conditions, this type of logic is termed if-else
• MATLAB has several types of if constructs, beginning with the most basic – a simple if statement

if Statement
• The simple if statement specifies that a command or group of commands will be executed only if a condition exists
• If the condition does not exist, then the command(s) are simply bypassed, and the execution of the program continues
• All if statements must have an end statement as well

Example
• Let’s consider the example of grades again• With a if statement, we can mark a passing grade:
• Note that nothing is printed if the grade is not passing
Engineering Computation: An Introduction Using MATLAB and Excel
g = input( 'Enter numerical grade ');if g >= 60 grade = 'P'end

if-else Statement
• This form is similar to the Excel IF statement in that two alternative paths are presented
• If the condition is true, then one set of commands is executed. If the condition is not true (else), then another set of commands is executed
• The same result can be achieved by “stacking” simple if statements, but this form is more compact
• Also, it guarantees that one of the alternative paths is followed

Example
• Adding to the previous commands, we can designate a grade as either passing or failing
• Note that one of the two options must be chosen

g = input( 'Enter numerical grade ');if g >= 60 grade = 'P'else grade = 'F'end

if-elseif Statement
• This structure allows for more than two paths to be considered
• More compact structure than nested if statements• As soon as a condition is satisfied, then the flow of
calculations proceeds to the end statement

Summary
• if statement: execute a command or set of commands if a condition is true, otherwise skip the commands
• if-else statement: execute one set of commands if a condition is true, execute a different set of commands if the condition is false
• if-elseif-else: allows the checking of multiple conditions
