 Encyclopedia: Conditional branch
Branches where the results of the conditional statement affect the outcome of the branch's execution are particularly difficult because they cannot be executed speculatively at all in a strict programming language (C, C++, Java, BASIC, FORTRAN, and others) without substantial effort on the part of the programmer to allow for it.
Conditional branches are often issued in speculative execution, primarily because there is no simple solution to predict which branch will be selected when the condition is evaluated.
This is a common method in computer programming.

 WDVL: Control Statements
Another classic programming technique is the loop, where one or more statements are executed repeatedly either while or until a certain condition is met.
The important thing about a loop such as while is that the condition must eventually prove false, otherwise the loop will never end and Very Bad Things may happen -- the computer may lock up, become unresponsive, or the programming language may produce an error.
The break statement will immediately exit the loop, regardless of conditions, while continue will skip ahead to the top of the loop and the condition test, ignoring any remaining statements in the statement block for the given pass.

 Picture-Based vs. Rule-Based Learning
The kind of catastrophe usually associated with programming "bugs" is minimized or eliminated in part because information processing is distributed among many "synapses" in the artificial neural network.
Thus, digital computing or linear sequential programming is utterly incompatible with a political or esthetic judgment because the latter requires judgment as a whole and assigning appropriate (desirable) weights to conflicting factors.
The decision making steps are implemented as "conditional jumps" in a branching linear program, e.g., "if then...

If you really want to learn Unix programing just install Linux and use the gcc.....lots of web pages out there that can help you get started using gcc once you have learned C. I always say....a conditional is a conditional, and a while loop is a while loop.......pretty much the same in any language.
But I've found that all the software for programming is MS.
Furthermore c/c++ programs excecute a lot faster when the basic program is interpreted, and a bit faster when it is compiled.

 REPORT
Since in different applications and programming languages conditional branches behave differently, it is important to have a set of benchmark programs that can truthfully represents the average workload and complexity of the programs people run.
Branches impede machine performance in that conditional branch is not resolved until the condition is resolved and the target address is calculated, and unconditional branch is not resolved until the target address is calculated.
Branch behavior of a program is a very important factor, if not the most important, to determine the performance of any branch prediction schemes.

 CONDITIONAL SENTENCES
A conditional sentence is supposed to be a more onerous penalty than probation, but if a probationer and an offender given a conditional sentence both participate in an attendance centre program in which each is under the same degree of surveillance and given similar programming, the distinction is lost.
The conditional sentence provisions are virtually identical to the provisions for probation: the Criminal Code allows the court to suspend a custodial sentence in a case where the offence committed has no minimum sentence and give the offender probation instead; in the same case, the court could, alternatively, hand down a conditional sentence.
A conditional sentence now allows offenders, who would otherwise be given a custodial sentence of less than two years, to serve their sentences in the community under strict conditions.

 Charming Python: Functional programming in Python, Part 1
I've found it much easier to get a grasp of functional programming in the language Haskell than in Lisp/Scheme (even though the latter is probably more widely used, if only in Emacs).
What we have accomplished is that we have managed to express a little program that involves I/O, looping, and conditional statements as a pure expression with recursion (in fact, as a function object that can be passed elsewhere if desired).
Functional programs bypass this particular issue by simply not assigning values to variables at all.

 Programming Tools: Code Complexity Metrics Linux Journal
In programming terms, edges are the code executed as a result of a decision--they are the decision points.
Logical metrics deals with such things as the number of paths through a program, the depth of conditional statements and blocks, the level of parenthesization in expressions, the number of terms and factors in expressions, the number of parameters and arguments used and the like.
where M is the McCabe Cyclomatic Complexity (MCC) metric, E is the number of edges in the graph of the program, N is the number of nodes or decision points in the graph of the program and X is the number of exits from the program.

The derived in [5, 6] quantum nonlinear filtering equation for the posterior conditional expectations was represented also in the form of stochastic wave equations.
Thus, if the automata is a quantum dynamical system, a net of quantum bits, say, the quantum computation process should be described by algorithms of quantum dynamical programming based on quantum dynamical filtering.
There is no way in quantum world to observe and predict states of quantum automata, with the results of quantum computations, without errors and perturbations: quantum systems are probabilistic by their nature.

 Jonathan Bennett - A Philosophical Guide to Conditionals - Reviewed by Richard Mendelsohn, CUNY - Philosophical Reviews - University of Notre Dame
These “paradoxes” have not posed such a problem for mathematicians, who find this definition thoroughly congenial to their own use of conditionals in mathematical proof, and who have even subtly infected the usage of the literate public by disseminating it through programming languages.
Since this identification of conditional probability is so central to the probabilistic interpretation of conditionals, it is fairly widely held—and ably defended by Bennett—that these conditionals are not propositions, not truth-value bearers in the traditional sense.
§6 defends subjective probability as the appropriate probability interpretation; §7 is a well-argued defense of the view that indicative conditionals lack truth value—indeed, Bennett identifies this as one of the major themes of his guidebook; §8 discusses the uses of indicative conditionals, and §9 discusses the logic of indicative conditionals.

 Conditional loop
The While loop and the For loop are the two most common types of conditional loops in most programming language s.
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.

 C/C++ Programming
When the operators are used in conjunction with a conditional test, such as in an if statement or a loop control conditional test, then the placement of the operator in relationship to the operand is taken into account as to when to decrement or increment the value of the operand.
The conditional operator is used to replace if-else logic in some situations.
The languages provide arithmetic, relational, logical, bitwise, conditional and many others.

Most of the examples below use the IF command, but the conditional expressions could be used in the other cases above as well.
Test conditions are always scanned from left to right – there is no implied order of precedence, as there is in some programming languages.
The commands DO (when used with the UNTIL or WHILE keyword), IF, IFF/ELSEIFF, and the variable function @IF evaluate conditional expressions, and perform a different action based on whether or not the expression is TRUE.

 Conditional statement - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A conditional statement, in computer science, is a vital part of a programming language.
Other conditional statements include switch statements, case statements and statements with guards.
If the condition is true, the statement block following the Then (another reserved word) shall be executed, otherwise the execution shall continue in the following statement block.

 Causality
The classic IF/THEN statements in most programming languages are examples of conditional statements or logical conditional statements and are not statements of causality.
Logical conditional statements are also presented in the form of (IF...THEN...) and so are commonly confused with causal statements – they are distinct, however.
In causal connections "something is allowed to go wrong" to prevent switch S from lighting bulb B, whereas logical statement allow no exceptions.

But you may design a conditional statement that starts one macro depending on one type of user input, or another macro depending on other types of user input.
Macro execution commands affect the operation of macros by either controlling the display, macro execution speed, or delay until the next command is executed.

Some purport to offer end users the ability to prgram without needing programming experience, the trouble is if you don't understand the concept of a loop or conditional processing then it doesn't matter if its text or icons on a page you aren't going to be able to cope with it.
Not that imperative programming is going to disappear, (people still program in C as well as C++).
The future programming languages are already here, it's just that most programmers haven't realised yet.
