Decision Making and Validating Data

1. Decision Making in Programming
   • Concept: Decision making in programming involves using conditional statements to perform different actions based on different conditions.
   • Types:
     • If Statement: Executes a block of code if a specified condition is true.
     • If-Else Statement: Executes one block of code if a condition is true and another block if it is false.
     • Switch Statement: Allows a variable to be tested for equality against a list of values.
2. Validating Data
   • Definition: Data validation is the process of ensuring that a program operates on clean, correct, and useful data.
   • Techniques:
     • Range Check: Ensures that a number falls within a specified range.
     • Type Check: Ensures that the data is of the correct type.
     • Format Check: Ensures that the data is in a specific format.
