A conditional statement, symbolized by p q, is an if-then statement in which p is a hypothesis and q is a conclusion. The logical connector in a conditional statement is denoted by the symbol. The conditional is defined to be true unless a true hypothesis leads to a false conclusion.
A control statement is a statement that determines whether other statements will be executed.
A conditional statement is a logical expression structured as 'if-then', where the first part is called the antecedent and the second part is the consequent. It asserts that if the antecedent is true, then the consequent must also be true, with the overall statement being false only when the antecedent is true and the consequent is false. Understanding these statements is essential for logical reasoning in various fields, including mathematics and computer science.
