Python Control Flow

Python Control Flow is how a Python program decides what to do next: branch, repeat, stop, or continue. In Brevvie Python + AI — Section 2: Control Flow & The Treasure Hunt, it is the central topic.

Core tools in the source

  • if / elif / else for branching
  • for for iterating known collections
  • while for looping until a condition changes
  • break and continue for altering loop behavior

Why it matters

The source presents control flow as the bridge between static code and responsive behavior. Once code can branch and loop, it can react to game state, user input, data shape, and failure conditions.
