RPA is the technology that enables a software program to mimic human actions while
interacting with computer applications to accomplish required tasks. Some human
interactions that can be automated are:

What is RPA?

Keyboard inputs Mouse movements and
clicks
Reading computer screen

Control Flow is the order in which
activities are executed or evaluated in a
software project.


The most common control flow
statements are If, While, Do While, For
Each, and Switch.


What is a Control Flow?

18. 18




●The conditional, also known as decision-making activities such as If, Else If, and
Switch.

●Loops such as While, Do While, and For Each.










Types of Control Statements

19. 19


Contains a statement with a condition, and two sets of instructions (Then & Else) as
outcomes
Then: the set of actions to be executed when the condition is True
Else: the set of actions to be executed when the condition is False


Conditional Control Statements - If

20. 20


It comes with the ability to add multiple
conditions to the Else branch.
●If the first condition is met, then you perform
the action under it.
●If not, you can add another condition using the
second Else If and if the condition is True,
then perform the action under it. If not, add
another condition using Else If.
●Else, if none of the conditions are met, then
you perform the last action under Else.

Conditional Control Statements - Else If

21. 21


Executes a set of activities out of multiple, based on the
value of a specific expression.

Useful when we need at least three potential sources of
action.

★Switch evaluates once; Else If evaluates each time.

Conditional Control Statements - Switch
Business Cases to use Switch Statement
●An invoice that has three potential
statuses (not started, pending, approved)
and three sets of actions for each one.

22. 22


While

It executes a specific sequence while a condition is met.
The condition is evaluated before each execution of the
statements.

It is possible for a While loop to have zero executions!



For example, if a Robot would play Blackjack, it should
calculate the hand before deciding whether to draw
another card.





Conditional Control Statements - Loops - While

23. 23



Do While

It executes a specific sequence while a condition is met.
The condition is evaluated after each execution of the
statements


Key Difference for Do While:

The activities contained within it are executed at least
once.


Conditional Control Statements - Loops - Do While

24. 24


For Each

It performs an activity or a series of activities
on each element of an input collection.







Conditional Control Statements - Loops - For Each

25. 25


Loops are fun, but you should know how to stop the ride at some point. There are multiple
ways to exit a loop:

●The While and Do While loops will exit when upon checking, the condition is no longer
true.

●The For Each loop will exit when it has finished processing every item in the input
collection.

●The Break activity - Exits the loop activity (e.g. For Each, While, or Do While) at a chosen
point and continues the workflow with the activity that follows it.

●The Continue activity enables you to skip the remaining steps in the current iteration and
continues with the next iteration.
