</help:to-be-embedded>
<p class="Paragraph">Normally, a program proceeds from top to bottom. However, in some cases you may want to only execute certain procedures within the program if specific conditions are fulfilled. Or you may wish to repeat a section of the program within a subprocedure or function. In this case, you can use so-called "Loops" to repeat parts of a program as many times as necessary, or until a certain condition is met. These type of control statements are classified as Condition, Loop, or Jump statements.</p>
