Chapter 3: Control Flow Statements

Control flow statements are essential for managing the execution of programs based on conditions and repetitions. Java supports various types of control flow statements, including conditional, looping, and branching statements. Each plays a crucial role in making decisions, executing repeated actions, and controlling execution flow within methods and loops.

    Control Flow Statements

    Control flow statements in Java manage the execution flow of programs based on conditions or repetitions.

  • 3.2

    Types Of Control Flow Statements

    Control flow statements dictate the execution flow of a program, including decision-making, repetition, and branching features.

  • 3.3

    Conditional Statements

    Conditional statements execute code blocks based on specific conditions being true or false.

  • 3.4

    Looping Statements

    Looping statements in Java allow for the repeated execution of a block of code based on specific conditions.

  • 3.4.1

    A. For Loop

    The 'for loop' in Java is used to execute a block of code repeatedly when the number of iterations is known.

  • 3.4.2

    B. While Loop

    The while loop in Java is used to execute a block of code repeatedly as long as a specified condition is true.

  • 3.4.3

    C. Do-While Loop

    The do-while loop executes a block of code at least once before evaluating a condition.

  • 3.5

    Branching Statements

    Branching statements control the flow in loops, allowing programmers to skip iterations or exit loops based on defined conditions.

  • 3.5.1

    A. Break Statement

    The break statement in Java is utilized to exit loops or switch statements prematurely based on certain conditions.

  • 3.5.3

    C. Return Statement

    The 'return' statement in Java is used to exit a method, optionally returning a value.

  • 3.6

    Nested Loops

    Nested loops allow you to place one loop inside another, facilitating multi-dimensional data processing such as pattern generation.
