Описание: Advanced Raspberry Pi Python Control-Flow Tutorial — If / Elif / Else, Loops, Break & Continue, Functions
Level-up your Pi programming! In this advanced Raspberry Pi Python lesson you’ll master control-flow tools that turn basic scripts into real-world automation. We cover conditional statements, for & while loops, break/continue, and writing reusable Python functions with parameters. You’ll see practical sensor-monitor examples you can adapt to home-lab projects, data logging, or DIY robotics.

🔑 Essential Talking Points
Why control flow on Raspberry Pi Python is crucial for automation scripts

Proper indentation to avoid IndentationError in nested blocks

Deciding between for and while loops for fixed vs. unknown iterations

Real-time sensor monitoring pattern: loop + condition + break

Benefits of functions: reuse, testing, and cleaner code organisation

Ideas for practice projects: quiz game, temperature logger, menu-driven tools
