Control Structures

 

Wiki: A control structure is a block of programming that analyzes variables and chooses a direction in which to go based on given parameters. The term flow control details the direction the program takes (which way program control "flows"). Hence it is the basic decision-making process in computing; flow controldetermines how a computer will respond when given certain conditions and parameters.
