We can solve any real-world problem by writing a program containing four programming language statements: sequential, conditional, control transfer, and iterative statements.
Sequential statements:
Its don’t break the normal flow of execution of code
Ex: variable declarations, assignment statements, etc.
var a;
a=10;3 types of control statements
