Decisions

A Decision is when a program has more than one choice of actions depending on a variable's value. Think of a traffic light. When it is green, we continue our drive. When we see the light turn yellow, we reduce our speed, and when it is red, we stop. These are logical decisions that depend on the value of the traffic light. Luckily, Python has a decision statement to help us when our application needs to make such decision for the user.

If 语句

Here is a warm-up exercise - a short program to compute the absolute value of a number:
absoval.py

n = raw_input("Integer? ")#Pick an integer.  And remember, if raw_input is not supported by your OS, use input()
n = int(n)#Defines n as the integer you chose. (Alternatively, you can define n yourself)
if n < 0:
    print ("The absolute value of",n,"is",-n)
else:
    print ("The absolute value of",n,"is",n)

Here is the output from the two times that I ran this program:

Integer? -34
The absolute value of -34 is 34

Integer? 1
The absolute value of 1 is 1

What does the computer do when it sees this piece of code? First it prompts the user for a number with the statement "n = raw_input("Integer? ")". Next it reads the line "if n < 0:". If n is less than zero Python runs the line "print "The absolute value of",n,"is",-n". Otherwise python runs the line "print "The absolute value of",n,"is",n".

More formally, Python looks at whether the expression n < 0 is true or false. An if statement is followed by an indented block of statements that are run when the expression is true. After the if statement is an optional else statement and another indented block of statements. This 2nd block of statements is run if the expression is false.

Expressions can be tested several different ways. Here is a table of all of them:

operator	function
<	less than
<=	less than or equal to
>	greater than
>=	greater than or equal to
==	equal
!=	not equal

Another feature of the if command is the elif statement. It stands for "else if," which means that if the original if statement is false and the elif statement is true, execute the block of code following the elif statement. Here's an example:
ifloop.py

a = 0
while a < 10:
    a = a + 1
    if a > 5:
        print (a,">",5)
    elif a <= 7:
        print (a,"<=",7)
    else:
        print ("Neither test was true")

and the output:

1 <= 7
2 <= 7
3 <= 7
4 <= 7
5 <= 7
6 > 5
7 > 5
8 > 5
9 > 5
10 > 5

Notice how the elif a <= 7 is only tested when the if statement fails to be true. elif allows multiple tests to be done in a single if statement.

Sample run:

Let's play the guessing game!

As it states in its comments, this code is not prepared to handle invalid input (i.e., strings instead of numbers). If you are wondering how you would implement such functionality in Python, you are referred to the Errors Chapter of this book, where you will learn about error handling. For the above code you may try this slight modification of the while loop:

while True:
	inp = input(question)
	try:
		guess = int(inp)
	except ValueError:
		print('Your guess should be a number')
	else:
		if guess < answer:
			print ('Little higher')
		elif guess > answer:
			print ('Little lower')
		else: # guess == answer
			print ('MINDREADER!!!')
			break

even.py

#Asks for a number.
#Prints if it is even or odd

print ("Input [x] for exit.")

while True:
	inp = input("Tell me a number: ")
	if inp == 'x':
		break
	# catch any resulting ValueError during the conversion to float
	try:
		number = float(inp)
	except ValueError:
		print('I said: Tell me a NUMBER!')
	else:
		test = number % 2
		if test == 0:
			print (int(number),"is even.")
		elif test == 1:
			print (int(number),"is odd.")
		else:
			print (number,"is very strange.")

Sample runs.

Tell me a number: 3
3 is odd.

Tell me a number: 2
2 is even.

Tell me a number: 3.14159
3.14159 is very strange.

练习

1. Write a password guessing program to keep track of how many times the user has entered the password wrong. If it is more than 3 times, print You have been denied access. and terminate the program. If the password is correct, print You have successfully logged in. and terminate the program.
2. Write a program that asks for two numbers. If the sum of the numbers is greater than 100, print That is a big number and terminate the program.
3. Write a program that asks the user their name. If they enter your name, say "That is a nice name." If they enter "John Cleese" or "Michael Palin", tell them how you feel about them ;), otherwise tell them "You have a nice name."
4. Ask the user to enter the password. If the password is correct print "You have successfully logged in" and exit the program. If the password is wrong print "Sorry the password is wrong" and ask the user to enter the password 3 times. If the password is wrong print "You have been denied access" and exit the program.

条件语句

Many languages (like Java and PHP) have the concept of a one-line conditional (called The Ternary Operator), often used to simplify conditionally accessing a value. For instance (in Java):

int in= ; // read from program input

// a normal conditional assignment
int res;
if(number < 0)
  res = -number;
else
  res = number;

For many years Python did not have the same construct natively, however you could replicate it by constructing a tuple of results and calling the test as the index of the tuple, like so:

number = int(raw_input("Enter a number to get its absolute value:"))
res = (-number, number)[number > 0]

It is important to note that, unlike a built in conditional statement, both the true and false branches are evaluated before returning, which can lead to unexpected results and slower executions if you're not careful. To resolve this issue, and as a better practice, wrap whatever you put in the tuple in anonymous function calls (lambda notation) to prevent them from being evaluated until the desired branch is called:

number = int(raw_input("Enter a number to get its absolute value:"))
res = (lambda: number, lambda: -number)[number < 0]()

Since Python 2.5 however, there has been an equivalent operator to The Ternary Operator (though not called such, and with a totally different syntax):

number = int(raw_input("Enter a number to get its absolute value:"))
res = -number if number < 0 else number

Switch

A switch is a control statement present in most computer programming languages to minimize a bunch of If - elif statements. Sadly Python doesn't officially support this statement, but with the clever use of an array or dictionary, we can recreate this Switch statement that depends on a value.

x = 1

def hello():
  print ("Hello")

def bye():
  print ("Bye")

def hola():
  print ("Hola is Spanish for Hello")

def adios():
  print ("Adios is Spanish for Bye")

# Notice that our switch statement is a regular variable, only that we added the function's name inside
# and there are no quotes
menu = [hello,bye,hola,adios]

# To call our switch statement, we simply make reference to the array with a pair of parentheses
# at the end to call the function
menu[3]()   # calls the adios function since is number 3 in our array.

menu[0]()   # Calls the hello function being our first element in our array.

menu[x]()   # Calls the bye function as is the second element on the array x = 1

This works because Python stores a reference of the function in the array at its particular index, and by adding a pair of parentheses we are actually calling the function. Here the last line is equivalent to:

Another way. Using function through user Input

go = "y"
x = 0
def hello():
  print ("Hello")
 
def bye():
  print ("Bye")
 
def hola():
  print ("Hola is Spanish for Hello")
 
def adios():
  print ("Adios is Spanish for Bye")

menu = [hello, bye, hola, adios]
 

while x < len(menu) :
    print "function", menu[x].__name__, ", press " , "[" + str(x) + "]"
    x += 1
    
while go != "n":
    c = input("Select Function: ")
    menu[c]()
    go = raw_input("Try again? [y/n]: ")

print "\nBye!"
   

#end

Another way

if x == 0:
    hello()
elif x == 1:
    bye()
elif x == 2:
    hola()
else:
    adios()

Another way

Another way is to use lambdas. Code pasted here with permissions[1].

result = {
  'a': lambda x: x * 5,
  'b': lambda x: x + 7,
  'c': lambda x: x - 2
}[value](x)

For more information on lambda see anonymous functions in the function section.
