-# Control Flow & Statements
+# Control Flow & Statements
+Control flow statements determine the order in which your code is executed, allowing your program to make decisions, execute specific code blocks repeatedly, or jump between different code sections. Mastering these helps in creating dynamic, logical, and efficient programs.
+
+## Conditional Statements
+Conditional statements execute different code blocks based on evaluated conditions.
+
+## If-Else
+Executes code based on a boolean condition.
+
+Example:
+```cpp
+#include <iostream>
+
+int main() {
+    int score = 75;
+    if(score >= 60){
+        std::cout << "Passed";
+    } else {
+        std::cout << "Failed";
+    }
+    return 0;
+}
+```
+## Switch 
+Executes one case among many options based on a variable's value.
+
+Example:
+```cpp
+#include <iostream>
+
+int main() {
+    char grade = 'B';
+    switch (grade) {
+        case 'A': std::cout << "Excellent"; break;
+        case 'B': std::cout << "Good"; break;
+        default: std::cout << "Grade not recognized";
+    }
+    return 0;
+}
+```
+## Loops
+Loops repeatedly execute specific code blocks.
+
+## For Loop
+Executes the code a predetermined number of times.
+
+Example:
+```cpp
+#include <iostream>
+
+int main() {
+    for (int i = 0; i < 5; ++i) {
+        std::cout << i << " "; // Prints 0 1 2 3 4
+    }
+    return 0;
+}
+```
+## While Loop
+Repeats execution as long as the condition is true.
+
+Example:
+```cpp
+#include <iostream>
+
+int main() {
+    int count = 0;
+    while (count < 5) {
+        std::cout << count << " "; // Prints 0 1 2 3 4
+        count++;
+    }
+    return 0;
+}
+```
+## Do-While Loop
+Executes its code block at least once before checking the condition.
+
+Example:
+```cpp
+#include <iostream>
+
+int main() {
+    int num = 0;
+    do {
+        std::cout << num << " "; // Prints 0 1 2 3 4
+        num++;
+    } while (num < 5);
+    return 0;
+}
+```
+## Jump Statements
+These statements alter the normal flow of execution.
+- break: Exits the nearest loop or switch.
+- continue: Skips the current iteration and moves to the next.
+- goto: Jumps execution to a labeled statement (use sparingly).
+
+Example:
+```cpp
+#include <iostream>
+
+int main() {
+    for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
+        if (i == 5) break;       // Stops the loop when i = 5
+        if (i % 2 == 0) continue; // Skips even numbers
+        std::cout << i << " ";    // Prints 1 3
+    }
+    return 0;
+}
+```
