if ( value == 399 )
System.out.println("Correct Value");
else
System.out.println("Wrong Value");
Usually if you have an expression that uses a NOT operator, replace it with an equivalent comparison that does not use a NOT. If this is not possible, rewrite the expression so that the NOT applies to the smallest subexpression possible.
In the following, X and Y represent numbers that can be compared.
| Expression | Equivalent | Expression | Equivalent | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| !(X < Y) | X >= Y | !(X >= Y) | X < Y | |
| !(X > Y) | X <= Y | !(X <= Y) | X > Y | |
| !(X == Y) | X != Y | !(X != Y) | X == Y |
Rewrite the following if statement:
if ( !(car.price > 8000 ) )
System.out.println("Affordable");
else
System.out.println("Too Expensive!");
