The Control structures are primarily useful for writing programs. In the console, the apply functions (apply, sapply, ..) are most appropriated.

• if: testing a condition
• for: execute a loop n number of times
• while: execute a loop while a condition is true
• repeat: execute an infinite loop
• break: break the execution of a loop
• next: skip an iteration of a loop
• return: stop the execution of function and return a value
