Control Flow & Data Structures

Control Flow and Data Structures are important concepts in programming that help computers make decisions and organize data efficiently.

 

What is Control Flow?

Control Flow tells the program what to do next based on conditions like True or False.

It uses statements like:

  • if
  • if-else
  • loops

to control the flow of execution.

Example:

If a student passes an exam, the program shows “Congratulations”, otherwise it shows “Try Again”.

What are Data Structures?

Data Structures are used to store and manage data in an organized way.

Common data structures in Python include:

  • Lists
  • Tuples
  • Sets
  • Dictionaries

They help in storing multiple values like student names, marks, or scores in a single variable.

Why are They Important?

Using proper Control Flow and Data Structures, programs become:

  • Faster
  • Smarter
  • Easier to Understand

These concepts are widely used in real-world applications like:

  • Games
  • Apps
  • Websites

Programming becomes more powerful and organized with these important concepts.
