Flow Control StatementsWhen manipulating data in a C# app logical flow control statements preform actions depending on their function ie. if, else, switch, while.
if and if elseA logic statement that if a boolean condition is true then execute the code within the if statement. The if else statement is used to execute code if the if statement is true, and if it isn't true the else statement is run.
Equality== is used when comparing two variables and if the variables are the same it would be a true statement.
Inequality!= is used when comparing two variables and if the variables are not the same it would be a true statement.
Greater than90 > 60
Less than50 < 60
Greater than or Equal tototal >= 90
Less than or Equal tototal <= 90
Boolean AND&& is used between two separate logical comparisons that will run code if both statements are true. if(total < 100 && total != 0)
Boolean OR`
switch statementWhen comparing a variable to multiple different cases switch statements are a cleaner alternative to if else.
while loopWhen executing code that needs to continue running over and over until the condition in the while loop is true. For example: while(reading) {Console.WriteLine("I'm being read")} if reading becomes false there is nothing written to the console.
