C and C based languages - Conditionals and Loops

Conditionals and Loops - C and C based languages module C203

In this module, we study conditional statements like if and else that you use in C to have parts of your code run only if certain conditions are true, and loops such as while and for while provide the facilities through which you get parts of your code to repeat a number of times, or until a certain condition is met.
