Control structures are features of programming languages that influence the code flow. Examples of control structures are:

loops, which repeat sections of code
conditions, which selectively execute sections of code
exceptions, which help in error handling and avoid causing more problems when there is another problem
jumps (a.k.a. "branches" or "gotos"), which explicitly and usually unconditionally set the next instruction to be executed by the program

Examples of these structures can be found on the following pages:
