EXERCISE
2 Apply knowledge of computing fundamentals and develop computer programs as a result of
evaluating possible alternative program constructs that will address the need for automating
real life tasks, taking into account the efficiency and effects of their choice of constraints.
III. INTENDED LEARNING OUTOME/S (ILO) ADDRESSES BY THE LABORATORY

EXERCISE
 Create Java programs using the Java Operators
 Create Java programs using the different flow control structures
IV. BACKGROUND INFORMATION
 if-else() performs statements based on two conditions

 switch() performs statements based on multiple conditions
 while() performs statements repeatedly while condition remains true
 do-while() performs statements repeatedly (at least once) while condition remains true
 for() performs statements repeatedly based on a condition
V. EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURE:
1. Write a program that takes as input a bank account balance and an interest rate and
outputs the value of the account in 10 years. the output should show the value of the
account for three different methods of compounding interest: annually, monthly, and
daily. When compounded annually, the interest is added once per year at the end of the
year. When compounded monthly the interest is added in 12 times per year. When
computed daily, the interest is added 365 times per year. You do not have to worry
about leap years. Assume all years have 365 days. On annual interest, you can assume
that the interest is posted exactly one year from the date of deposit. In other words, you
do not have to worry about interest being posted on a specific day of the year, like
December 31.
import java.util.*;
Similarly, you can assume monthly interest is posted exactly one month after it in entered.
Since the account
public earns interest on the interest, the account should have a higher balance

interest.

then when posting monthly interest, you use
(5/12%).When
{ posting daily interest, you use (5/365)%. Do your calculations using a loop

Your program should have an outer loop that allows the user to repeat this calculation for a
new balance and interest rate. The calculation is repeated until the user indicates that

end the program.
int newBalance;
char answer;
int iteration;
do
{
System.out.println("Please enter an initial balance "
+ "(dollars.cents):");
initialBalance = (int)(dollar.nextDouble()* 100 + 0.5);
System.out.println("Please enter an interest rate in percent "

+ "(e.g. 5.25):");
interestRate = dollar.nextDouble();
System.out.println("In ten years an initial balance of $"

+ (double)initialBalance/100);
System.out.println("At an interest rate of " + interestRate + "% will be worth");
newBalance = initialBalance;
for(iteration =1; iteration <= 10; ++iteration)
newBalance = newBalance
+ (int)((interestRate/100) * newBalance + 0.5);
System.out.println("$" + (double)newBalance/100
+ " compounded annually");
for(iteration = 1; iteration <= 120; ++iteration)
+ (int)((interestRate/12) * (newBalance/100)

+ " compounded monthly");
for(iteration = 1; iteration <= 3650; ++iteration)
+ (int)((interestRate/365) * ((float)newBalance/100)
+ 0.5);
+ " compounded daily");
System.out.println("");
System.out.println("Do you want to do it again?");
System.out.println("Enter y for yes or n for no.");
answer = dollar.next().charAt(0);
} while ((answer == 'y') || (answer == 'Y'));
}
}
VI. QUESTION AND ANSWER:
1. What is the significance of using control structures?
Control Structures constitute the basic blocks for decision making processes in
computing. They change the flow of programs and enable us to construct complex
sets of instructions out of simpler building blocks.
2. For you, which is preferably the most convenient control structure to be used in comparisons,
IF-ELSE or SWITCH?
SWITCH
3. Do SWITCH and IF-ELSE have differences?
The if-else statement is used to choose between two options, but the switch case
statement is used to choose between numerous options. If the condition inside the if
block is false, the statement inside the else block is executed.
4. Which is the easiest way in looping? Explain.
The easiest way to think of the loop is that when it reaches the brace at the end it
jumps back up to the beginning of the loop, which checks the condition again and
decides whether to repeat the block another time or stop and move to the next
statement after the block.
Note: The following rubrics/metrics will be used to grade students’ output in the lab
