Seasons on Terra

4
Locked

An Earth year consists of four seasons, each of which lasts 3 months. While our ship was parked on this cradle of humanity, the Interplanetary Tax Service asked us to write a program to determine the season based on a number corresponding to the month of the year. We don't know why they want it. They say that it's none of our business. But they promised not to remain in our debt.

I used if with the || (OR) logical operator in my solution, and it passed at the first try!

I went with if/else-if way of solving this one which I think the simplest way.

Just make sure you go all the way with the switch though... all of them 1 to 12.

When you don't get it on the first attempt because instead of putting autumn you put fall.

I literally had to google conditional arguments because I only remembered the &&. When I mixed the || with the && I was able to output a correct answer in the console but the problem was still unresolved. Please help.

use switch case

That would be way more code for somthing so simple. Just use operators such as && and || Much easier since we know that numbers can be within a specific range. One thing I have learned is to always take shortcuts if possible, and you should always try to avoid repeating code. A switch case would be repeating a lot of code in this instance.

I see whatt your saying about less code, however cleaner code > less more complex code. personally think switch looks cleanner and the better option here. and no, you dont have to repeat code with switch. you can have multiple cases with the just one typed output if you utilize break;

My code doesn't work for some reason. i thought using the || operator would make it easier? why is my else if statement not showing?

it does makes it easier ... use if and if else and but them in it corresponding to the months

When checking a range you need to use the && operator because the || operator is basically saying that it can be either of the conditions. When you use the && operator it has to be both those conditions. Hopefully that makes sense.

Exactly, the || is not necessary in this excercise.. just if, else if and &&. :)
