Welcome back to CodeChef. What if you
could tell your computer to perform
multiple steps in an organized way?
Today, we'll explore how Java
understands individual statements,
groups of instructions called code
blocks, and the role of semicolons in
keeping everything clear. Think of
writing a Java program like giving
step-by-step instructions to a chef.
Each instruction, like chop onions or
boil water, is a statement ending with a
pause, just like a semicolon. When
several related steps are grouped
together, like a full recipe, that's
similar to a code block organized within
curly braces to keep everything neat. A
Java statement is a single instruction
ending with a semicolon. A code block is
a group of statements enclosed in curly
braces that runs together as a logical
unit. Code blocks are used in methods,
conditionals, and loops to group
multiple statements. Why are blocks
important in programming? They help
organize multiple steps when conditions
apply. For example, when X is positive,
you may want to execute multiple print
statements, not just one. Without
blocks, only the first statement runs,
causing bugs or unexpected behavior.
Here's a simple Java example. The first
statement assigns five to X. Then the
condition checks if x is greater than
zero. Since it is, both print statements
inside the block run in order. After
compiling and running the program, the
output will be positive x is 5. Did you
know empty blocks are valid in Java and
sometimes used as placeholders. Also,
blocks can be nested for more complex
logic like this keeps your code clean
and structured. Now it's your turn. Try
the beginner friendly code chef problem.
Print two numbers. Write a program that
prints two numbers, one on each line.
Today you learned statements are
individual commands ending with
semicolons. Code blocks group statements
inside curly braces. Blocks help control
multiple steps in conditions and loops.
