Control Structure in C

Language
Control structures are essential in C language for decision-making and looping.
They allow the execution of specific blocks of code based on certain
conditions.

If Statements
1 Syntax and Examples 2 Use Cases and Scenarios

The "if" statement is used to execute a "If" statements are commonly used for
block of code if a condition is true. conditionally executing code based on
Example: if (condition) statement; user input, data validation, and flow
control in programs.
Switch Statements
1 Syntax and Examples

The "switch" statement is used to select one of many code blocks to be executed. Example:
switch (expression) { case constant: statements }

2 Advantages over If Statements

Switch statements provide a more concise way to handle multiple possible conditions and
improve code readability.
While Loops
1 Syntax and Examples 2 Advantages over For Loops

The "while" loop is used to repeatedly While loops are useful when the number of
execute a block of code as long as the iterations is unknown or variable, allowing
given condition is true. Example: while dynamic control over the execution of the
(condition) { statements } loop.
For Loops

1 Syntax and Examples 2 Use Cases and Scenarios

The "for" loop is used to iterate a block of For loops are commonly used to iterate
code for a specific number of times. through arrays, perform arithmetic
Example: for (initialization; condition; operations, and accomplish repetitive
increment/decrement) { statements } tasks with a known number of iterations.
Do-While Loops
1 Syntax and Examples

The "do-while" loop is used to execute a block of code first and then repeatedly execute it
as long as the given condition is true. Example: do { statements } while (condition);

2 Differences from While Loops

Unlike while loops, do-while loops guarantee that the code block is executed at least once
before checking the condition.
Break and Continue Statements

allows you to skip the

loop and proceed with
the next iteration.
