Branching decisions refer to the process in programming where different paths are taken based on certain conditions or criteria. It allows the program to make decisions and execute specific blocks of code accordingly.
Conditional Statements: These are statements that evaluate a condition and determine which block of code should be executed based on whether the condition is true or false.
If-Else Statements: This is a type of conditional statement that allows for two possible outcomes. If a condition is true, one block of code is executed; if it's false, another block of code is executed.
Switch Statements: Similar to if-else statements, switch statements allow for multiple possible outcomes based on different values or cases.
