1

Use variables and arrays to store and manipulate data in your programs. 2

Use modular programming

Use conditional statements (such as if-then-else statements) to control the flow of your programs.

Use looping statements

techniques to create reusable code blocks that can be easily modified and reused.

(such as for loops and while loops) to repeat sections of code.

7

8

Use logical operators (such as AND, OR, and NOT) to create complex conditional statements. 5

6

Use mathematical operators (such as +, -, *, and /) to perform calculations in your programs.

Use string manipulation functions (such as concatenation and string splitting) to manipulate text data in your programs.

Use error-handling techniques (such as try-catch blocks) to handle exceptions and prevent program crashes.
