-A **Decision Point** is a place in a program where the execution flow through the program is controlled. As a general rule, **Decision Points** occur at the Control Flow statements, however, the each boolean expression in the Control Flow statement is its own **Decision Point**.
+A **Decision Point** is a place in a program where the execution flow through the program is controlled. As a general rule, **Decision Points** occur at the [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:c:control_flow]] operations (i.e., **''IF / ELSE IF / ELSE / ENDIF''**, or **''FOR LOOPS  | WHILE LOOPS /''**, etc.). However, each part of the boolean expression in the Control Flow operation is on its own, a **Decision Point**. For example:
-Control flow graph where the control of the program diverges. Common examples include do-while statements, if statements, and case statements.
+<Code cpp>
+if ( A > 0 && A <=100 && B != A || B > 10000)
+{ // Do somethiing
+} // End if
+else
+{ // So something else
+} // End else
+</Code>
-These statements are also referred to as control flow statements.
+The **''A > 0''** is one possible path through the software, and is therefore a **Decision Point**. **''A <= 100''** is another **Decision Point**, and so and so forth.
