Conditionals and loops are fundamental concepts in programming that control code execution flow. Conditionals allow the program to execute code blocks based on certain conditions, while loops enable repeated execution of code. The chapter covers the types of conditionals, comparison and logical operators, non-nested loops, their use cases, and best practices for effective implementation.

Chapter FAQs
What we have learnt
- Conditionals execute code blocks based on specific truth conditions.
- Comparison and logical operators are essential for making decisions in programming.
- Non-nested loops enable repetitive code execution under defined conditions.
Key Concepts
-
Term: Conditionals
Definition: Programming statements that execute a block of code only when a specific condition is true.
-
Term: Comparison Operators
Definition: Operators that compare two values and return a boolean result (e.g., ==, !=, >, <).
-
Term: Logical Operators
Definition: Operators used to combine multiple conditions to control program flow (e.g., and, or, not).
-
Term: NonNested Loops
Definition: Loops that repeat a block of code for a specific number of times or until a condition is met without containing other loops inside.
-
Term: Best Practices
Definition: Guidelines for writing effective loops and conditionals, such as clarity in conditions and proper indentation.
