Document Summary

The order in which individual statements, instructions or function calls are executed or evaluated: sequence, iteration, decision. Continuation at a different statement - goto statement. Executing a set of statements only if some condition is met - if statement. Executing a set of statements zero or more times, until condition is met - while loop. Executing a set of distant statements, after which flow of control usually returns - subroutines. Stopping programming, no further executions - unconditional halt. The conditional statement lets the program decide whether to do this or that depending on value of variables that validates true / false. If statement - consists of boolean expression followed by one or more statements. If else statement - has optional else statement that executes when boolean expression is false. Nested if statement - using if or else if statement inside another if or else if. Elif statement - used to decrease structure, fewer indentation needed.
