9.3 Introduction to C Decision Making

• You can decide which statements you want to execute in your program and which statements you want to skip. 
• This is called decision making. 
• Most decisions are done on a condition basis. 
• When a particular condition arrives, you can execute the statements you want. 
• For this, you use some built in statements. 
• Because these statements work with the conditions, they are also called conditional statements. 
• And because they control execution in the statement program, they are also called control statements. 
• Suppose you want to print the name of any of the two students whose age is over.
• How can you do this? See the program below.

#include <stdio.h>

int main()

{

sudoAge = 22;

bkAge = 21;

}

• In the above example, 2 students have been stored in age 2 variables. 
• But you only have to print the age of the student whose age is the highest. 
• In this situation you need to take a decision. 
• You can do this by any decision making statement (If, If-else, Switch).
