  2. Goto - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goto

    These are analogous to the use of a return statement in non-terminal position – not strictly structured, due to early exit, but a mild relaxation of the strictures of structured programming. In C, break and continue allow one to terminate a loop or continue to the next iteration, without requiring an extra while or if statement. In some ...

  3. Control flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_flow

    Executing a set of statements only if some condition is met (choice - i.e., conditional branch) Executing a set of statements zero or more times, until some condition is met (i.e., loop - the same as conditional branch) Executing a set of distant statements, after which the flow of control usually returns (subroutines, coroutines, and ...

  4. Conditional loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conditional_loop

    A conditional loop has the potential to become an infinite loop when nothing in the loop's body can affect the outcome of the loop's conditional statement. However, infinite loops can sometimes be used purposely, often with an exit from the loop built into the loop implementation for every computer language , but many share the same basic ...

  5. Structured programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structured_programming

    At the level of functions, this is a return statement. At the level of loops, this is a break statement (terminate the loop) or continue statement (terminate the current iteration, proceed with next iteration). In structured programming, these can be replicated by adding additional branches or tests, but for returns from nested code this can ...

  6. Conditional (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conditional_(computer...

    Arithmetic if is an unstructured control statement, and is not used in structured programming. In practice it has been observed that most arithmetic IF statements reference the following statement with one or two of the labels. This was the only conditional control statement in the original implementation of Fortran on the IBM 704 computer. On ...

  7. For loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/For_loop

    Common among these are the break and continue statements found in C and its derivatives. The break statement causes the innermost loop to be terminated immediately when executed. The continue statement will move at once to the next iteration without further progress through the loop body for the current iteration.

  8. Perl control structures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perl_control_structures

    In the following, label is an optional identifier terminated by a colon, and block is a sequence of one of more Perl statements surrounded by braces. All looping constructs except for the C-style for-loop can have a continue block that is executed after each iteration of the loop body, before the loop condition is evaluated again.

  9. While loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/While_loop

    While repeats one statement (unless enclosed in a begin-end block) as long as the condition is true. The repeat statement repetitively executes a block of one or more statements through an until statement and continues repeating unless the condition is false. The main difference between the two is the while loop may execute zero times if the ...
