A number of the basic logic and flow control statements in Java code, such as the if-else conditional statement and the for loops, look and work in a similar way as those in C and C++ but not identically.

For those unfamiliar with these types of statements, we discuss the details of the workings here:

• Conditional if-else statement
• Repetitions:
  • for statement
  • while statement
  • do/while statement
• Flow Control
  • break statement & statement labels
  • continue statement
  • switch/case statement
    
    
• Differences between C/C++ and Java at the basic syntax level. In Chapter:3: Supplements. : C++ vs Java we will look at the differences in the object oriented aspects of the languages.
  
  
• JVM instruction set. extends our discussion of Chapter 1: JVM by looking at the actual instructions used internally by the virtual machine.
