Week 2

//----------------------------------
//     Week 2 : If and Else Statements
//----------------------------------

//  Okay, so I know how to output a couple of sentences onto the screen.
//  A week should have already passed if I were studying this on
//  my own. Outrageous isn't it?
//  I remembered when I first started, I was told to go install this,
//  go install that, make this run.
//  It felt like a cat and mouse game.
//  I kept on moving around and I didn't know if I was making any progress or not. There were
//  so many code editors out there and I didn't know which was good or not.
//  No tutorial was there to help and it basically took me
//  almost a week to get my first code out. Very strange indeed.

//  By now, the most infamous "Hello World" example should be a breeze and accomplishable.
//  Hint: (Just output "Hello World")
//  I am or should be ready to tackle problems!! Yes? Let's start!
//  The next on the list are "If and While Statements".

//----------------------------------
//     Week 2.1 : If Statements
//----------------------------------

//  What does the word "If" mean in English?
//  I remembered when I first taught English,
//  this was also a very important "grammar structure" that most of my ESOL students
//  had to learn. The way I structured it was...

//  If ..... Then.....
//  If I went to play ball, then the dogs would come out.
//  If (condition), then (action)

//  In code, this follows the exact structure.
//  Here is the syntax for if C++ statements.

//  if (condition)
//  {then this code run};

//----------------------------------
//     Week 2.15 : If Statements Example Code
//----------------------------------

//  Try running the code below and see if it works or not.
//  Then try

#include <iostream>

int main()
{
  int x = 10;
  if (x = 10)
    {
       std::cout << "Yes, X is 10";
    }
  else
    {
      std::cout << "No, X does not equal 10";
    }
}

//----------------------------------
//     Week 2.175 : If Statements Example Code Comment
//----------------------------------

//  What the? Did I see an extra line of code?
//  What are these extra line of codes?
//  Well, let's break it down.

//  int x = 10;

//  x is the variable name. A variable name is a name that you
//  use to label any variable. It can be x, y, hotdog, pizza, anything you want.
//  int is short for integer.
//  An integer is a number that is whole; -200, 5, 75.
//  int is the datatype that you decided for the variable.

//  Example:
//  When I tell you that I have the letter X in my hand and it means something,
//  that doesn't really help much. However, when I tell you that this letter X is an integer,
//  now it brings a lot more info to the table. Oh, so I see that the X in my hand is an integer!
//  Now afterward, we must set the value of the X,
//  in which we add the "=" symbol and now X equals 10.
//  A datatype is used for clarification purposes and allows us to understand
//  what type of data we are working with.
//  When declaring (creating) new variables, we must set the datatype before the variable name.

//  Declaring
//  int y;

//  Intializing (setting a value to a variable)
//  y = 10;

//  Declaring and Initializing
//  int z = 50;

////  Else Statements ////

//  Now, what we saw an if statement, but we also saw an else too!
//  What does this mean overall?

//  In English, we would say...
//  If I am going to the park, I want to find a cheetah.
//  If I go to the park I want to find a cheetah, else I am going downtown to skateboard.
//  Mathematically...
//  If (this happens), then (do this)
//  If (this doesn't happen), else (this happens)

//  Fill in the blanks

#include ________

int main()
{
  ___ hamburgers = _ ;

  if (hamburgers = 3)
  {
  std::cout __ "I am hungry";
  }
  else
  _________ << "I need money"_
}
