Cairo Control Flow

Overview

Explain Cairo conditional logic and loops with correct syntax and typing rules.

Quick Use

• •Read references/control-flow.md before answering.
• •Show short examples of if expressions and each loop type (loop, while, for).
• •Emphasize that if conditions must be bool and that loop can return a value with break.

Response Checklist

• •Ensure if conditions are boolean and branches return the same type when used as an expression.
• •Pick the right loop: loop for indefinite repetition, while for condition-based, for for ranges/iterators.
• •Mention break/continue and break value when returning from a loop.

Example Requests

• •"How do I return a value from a loop?"
• •"How do I write a for loop over a range?"
