control flow in python

 Control flow statements in Python are used to determine the order in which statements are executed in a Python program. There are three main types of control flow statements in Python: if-elif-else statements, for loops, and while loops.

1. If-elif-else statements: These statements allow a program to make decisions based on conditions. The basic syntax of an if statement is:

   css
   if condition:
       statement(s)
   

   If the condition is true, then the statement(s) will be executed. Otherwise, they will be skipped. You can also use "elif" and "else" statements to provide additional conditions and statements, respectively.

2. For loops: These loops allow you to iterate over a sequence of elements, such as a list or a string. The basic syntax of a for loop is:

   css
   for variable in sequence:
       statement(s)
   

   The loop will iterate over each element in the sequence and execute the statement(s) for each iteration.

3. While loops: These loops allow you to repeat a block of code as long as a condition is true. The basic syntax of a while loop is:

   python
   while condition:
       statement(s)
   

   The loop will continue to execute the statement(s) as long as the condition remains true.
