I am explaining the <strong>Switch</strong> and <strong>Fork </strong>with respect

to the Java Programming.<br>

<strong>Switch </strong><br>

This is same as the Java <strong>Switch</strong> condition statement. <br>

If you want to execute different process depending on a condition you can use

this<br>

You can define a Switch step with <strong>N</strong> number of branches for <strong>N</strong>

number of conditions.<br>

If you want to execute <strong>one</strong> of <strong>N</strong> process(flows)

depending on <strong>N</strong> conditions you can use this.

<p><strong>Fork</strong><br>

This is same as the Java <strong>do while</strong> condition statement. <br>

If you want to execute <strong>N</strong> parallel process untill to satisfy

one condition you can use this.<br>

You can define <strong>N</strong> branches for <strong>N</strong> process..<br>

All branches will execute <strong>indipendent</strong> to each other</p>
