Description

As a beginner I often forget details about all control flow commands such as case, ecase, etc. it may be basic but I was trying to look for it in a cookbook but could not find it. if, when, unless, cond, etc - should be there too. I did a grep search on the sources and did not find a chapter on it and for me it seems that it can be there in the beginning alongside chapters on functions, structs.

What do you think? Does it have a place in the cookbook?

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Review the cookbook's existing chapter structure and the chapters on functions and structs, then map the requested control-flow topics—if, when, unless, cond, case, and ecase—to an appropriate beginner-facing scope and placement; done means the chapter plan fits the cookbook and covers the agreed commands.
