Program Control Types: There are three types of program controls,
Sequence control structure:
- Sequence instruction means executing one instruction after another, in the order in which they occur in the source file.
- This is usually built into the language as a default action, as it is with C.
- If an instruction is not a control statement, then the next instruction to be executed will simply be the next one in sequence.
Selection structures:
- Selection means executing different sections of code depending on a specific condition or the value of a variable.
- This allows a program to take different courses of action depending on different conditions.
- Those are if, if-else, nested if, if–else if and switch…case…break:
Repetition:
- Repetition/Looping means executing the same section of code more than once.
- A section of code may either be executed a fixed number of times, or while some condition is true.
- Those are for, while and do…while
