Selection
Statements
Although C has many operators, it has relatively tew
statements, we ve encountered just two so far: the return statement and the expression statement. Most of C's
remaining statements fall into three categories, depending on how they affect
the order in which statements are executed:
Selection statements. The if and
switch statements allow a program to select a particular execution path from a
set of alternatives.
Iteration statements. The while, do,
and for statements support iteration (looping).
Jump statements. The break, continue, and goto statements cause an unconditional
jump to some other place in the program. (The
return statement belongs in this category, as well.)
The only other statements in C are
the compound statement, which groups several statements into a single
statement, and the null statement, which performs no action.
