Transcript: 10. Introduction

Hello there and congratulations on reaching the second part of this course!

In this part you’ll learn more about a really important concept in programming - control flow.

You’ll use various mechanisms like ranges, loops, and the when expression, to utilize control flow and change the way your code behaves, You use it to also add ways to repeat pieces of your code multiple times.

Control flow, or the flow of control is the way your program behaves and decides which branch of the flow it will take next.

You use things like if/else & when statements and loops, to either determine the next piece of code you want to execute, or to loop over a piece of code, executing it multiple times.

We’ve done a bit bit of control flow in the previous part but this time around you’ll be introduced to new concepts.

After this part of the course, you’ll be able to fully manipulate the flow of control in your programs, so let’s go with the flow! :]
