                    Decision Making
           Prime (Ver. 2.2)-III  Ruhi is getting ready for school. She looks outside the window. It was raining.





                                                                        If (it’s raining)
                            Oh! It's raining.
                              What to do?
                                                                        then
                                                                              Carry an  umbrella  and go

                                                                            to school.

          80                                                            otherwise
                                                                            Don’t carry an umbrella.


                  This explains that when a condition like ‘if’ is given, there are two choices:

                  1.  When the ‘If’ condition is a ‘Yes’, then we follow ‘then’ statement.

                  2.  When the ‘If’ condition is a ‘No’, then we follow ‘otherwise’ statement.
                  Decision making is a process of arriving at a conclusion by making a choice.

                    Loops


                  The act of repeating an action again and again is called looping.


                  Let us understand loops with the help of an example.

                  You can observe that first Harry goes up towards the sky.
