Parallel Arrays & while loop
Aug 14 2012 7:40 PM
This program will check the price of a given item. If item is found that means in the
while
loop itemOrdered is equal to validValues[x] then the loop ends and the execution will go to next
if
expression.
If
loop will execute the price of the item.
Suppose we say give item is not found then
while
loop will end with x=4. Next execution will go to
if
expression and will skip executing the price (because item is not found) and program will end.
My question is
if
(x != validValues.Length) expression is
always
true
. But in one occasion (when item is found) loop is executed and other occasion (when item is not found) loop is skipped. Please explain this variation.
using System;
public class ParallelArrays1
{
public static void Main()
{
int[] validValues = {101, 108, 201, 213, 266};
double[] prices = {0.89, 1.23, 3.50, 0.69, 5.79};//parallel array
Console.Write("Enter item No: ");
int itemOrdered = Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine());
int x = 0;
while (x < validValues.Length && itemOrdered != validValues[x])
++x;
if (x != validValues.Length)
Console.WriteLine(prices[x].ToString("c"));
else
//error corrected
Console.WriteLine("Item entered is not found. End of the program");
Console.ReadKey();
}
}
