Determine if a Grade is Passing or Failing (If-Else Logic)

Determine if a Grade is Passing or Failing (If-Else Logic) in C++

Master conditional statements and input handling by creating a program that evaluates academic performance based on a specific threshold.

Decision Making Logic

Relational Operators

Using the >= operator allows the program to compare the user's input against the threshold of 60 to return a boolean result.

If-Else Branching

This structure directs the program flow into two distinct paths: one for success (True) and another for failure (False).

Step-by-Step Objective

Prompt the user to enter a numeric grade (0–100).
Store the input value in an int variable.
Evaluate if the value is 60 or higher using an if statement.
Display "Passing" for successful results and "Failing" otherwise.

C++ Solution

grade_checker.cpp Flow Control

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main() {
    int grade;

    cout << "Enter your grade (0-100): ";
    cin >> grade;

    // Check the condition
    if (grade >= 60) {
        cout << "Passing" << endl;
    } else {
        cout << "Failing" << endl;
    }

    return 0;
}

Console Output:

Enter your grade (0-100): 75
Passing
