The statements are of the following three types.

| Control Statement | To control the sequence of execution of different statements of the program. |
Control Statement
The statements that control the execution flow of the program are known as control statements.
In a program, we modify and repeat the data several times. We need some tools for these modifications that will control the flow of the program, and to perform this type of tasks Java Provides control statements.
There are four types of control statements:
- Sequence Control Statement
- Selection or Decision Control Statement
- Repetition or Loop Control Statement
- Case Control Statement
