Part 4: Control Flow in JavaScript Welcome to the next part of our JavaScript journey! In this segment, we'll explore control flow in JavaScript. Control flow allows you to make decisions in your code and execute specific blocks of code based on conditions. It's a fundamental concept in programming. At the end of this blog you will get a quiz to test your understanding of this topic. Let's dive in! Conditional Statements: Making Decisions Conditional statements are used to make decisions in your code. They allow your program to take different actions depending on whether a certain condition is true or false. 1. If Statement: The if statement is the most basic conditional statement. It executes a block of code if a specified condition evaluates to true. let age = 18 ; if (age >= 18 ) { console . log ( " You are an adult.
