Control Statements The second type of statement is the control statement. The following list illustrates some of the control statements available in Java: if (BooleanExpression) Statement if (BooleanExpression) Statement else Statement while (BooleanExpression) Statement do Statement while (BooleanExpression) for (Expression; BooleanExpression; Expression) Statement break <Label> continue <Label> return Expression Label: Statement switch (IntegerExpression) { case IntegerValue: Statements default: Statements }

This is all of Java that will be covered today. Next class we will discuss

• Constructors and the new operator
• Class variables and method distinctions
  (this, super, final, static, instance, and class variables)
• Packages (package and import)
• Class protection (public, private, protected)
• Exception handling
• Interfaces and abstract classes

We now know enough now to write a simple example.
