Introduction to

Conditional Statements
and Loops in
JavaScript

Conditional statements and loops are fundamental programming concepts in


JavaScript that allow you to control the flow of your code and automate
repetitive tasks. This presentation will cover the main types of conditional
statements and loops, including their syntax and use cases.
The `if-else` Statement
1 Basic Syntax 2 Example Usage
The if-else statement allows you to Use if-else to make decisions and take
execute different blocks of code based different actions based on user input or
on a condition. system state.

3 Nesting if-else
You can nest multiple if-else statements to create more complex conditional logic.
The `switch` Statement
Syntax Advantages Use Cases

The switch statement provides a Switch statements can be more Switch works well for cases with
more concise way to check readable than long chains of if- many possible outcomes, such as
multiple conditions. else statements. handling user menu selections.
The `while` Loop
Syntax Indefinite Execution
The while loop executes a block of code as long Unlike for loops, while loops can run an indefinite
as a specified condition is true. number of times.

Infinite Loops Example Usage


Be careful to avoid infinite loops that can cause Use while loops to process user input or simulate
your program to freeze. real-world processes.
The `do-while` Loop

Guaranteed Execution Repeated Execution Exit Condition


The do-while loop guarantees that The loop continues to execute as The loop will exit when the

least once.
The `for-in` Loop
Iterating Objects
The for-in loop is used to iterate over the properties of an object.

Enumerate Properties
The loop variable represents each property name (key) of the object.

Cautions
Be careful when using for-in as it can also iterate over inherited properties.
The `for-of` Loop
Syntax The for-of loop is used to iterate over the values of
an iterable object, such as an array.

Advantages for-of is simpler and more concise than using a


traditional for loop to iterate arrays.

Iterables for-of works with any iterable, including strings,


typed arrays, NodeLists, and more.
Conclusion and Best Practices
Conditional statements and loops are essential tools in JavaScript for controlling program flow and automating
repetitive tasks. Understanding their proper usage and following best practices can help you write more efficient,
readable, and maintainable code.
