Control flow statements, break up the flow of execution by Decision making, Looping, and Branching. These control flow statements are used to conditionally execute particular blocks of code.

Types of Control Flow Statements

• Decision — making statements: if, if-else, switch
• Looping statements: while, do-while, for
• Branching statements: break, continue, return

In this article, I will show, how you can use decision making control flow statements

Decision-making statements

Often we want the computer to carry out a test on some data and then take one of a choice of actions depending on the result. decision-making statements are very useful in such situations.
