Decisions in C

 Decision  or Branching in C or C++

In programming, decision or branching refers to the process of controlling the flow of a program by making choices based on certain conditions. A condition is evaluated either to true or false. A program is a set of instructions executed in sequence; the decision statement changes the sequence of the execution. It involves the use of conditional statements to determine which block of code should be executed next. Decision-making is a basic concept in programming. It  is essential for creating dynamic and responsive applications.

Think, how login functionality is implemented. A decision to login is made on condition whether entered username and password is correct or not.

if (condition) { 

   // Code to execute if condition is true

} 

else {

   //Code to execute if condition is false

}

Decision or branching constructs are required to create programs to make choices and respond to different scenarios. It is more flexible and adaptable, allowing it to execute different actions based on changing conditions, user input, or other factors.
