Answer :
Answer:
The code for the given statements are described below.
Explanation:
// Place code below in line 9
if(numItems < 0) // starting of a loop
{
numItemsPointer = NULL;
}
else
{
numItemsPointer = &numItems;
numItems = numItems * 10; // items multiplied by 10
} // ending of a loop
The program is an illustration of if conditional statement.
The required code segment (with comments) in C++ is as follows:
//If numItems is less than 0
if(numItems < 0) {
//This sets numItemsPointer to NULL
numItemsPointer = NULL;
//This displays "Negative Item" to the user screen
printf ("Negative item");
}
//If otherwise
else {
//This points numItems to the pointer (numItemsPointer)
numItemsPointer = &numItems;
This multiplies numItems by 10
numItems *= 10;
//This prints numItemsPointer
printf("Items: %d", *numItemsPointer);
}
- The if conditional statements are used to execute statements based on certain condition(s)
- If the condition is true, the statement is executed
- If otherwise, the statement is not executed.
