This module focuses on decision-making and repetition in programming - essential concepts that bring your code to life. You'll learn how to implement conditional statements to create different execution paths based on specific conditions, construct loops to automate repetitive tasks, and implement error handling to create robust programs. Through these techniques, you'll significantly enhance your text adventure game by adding branching story paths, combat mechanics, and player input validation, creating a more dynamic and interactive experience for players.

This module introduces you to functions - reusable blocks of code that bring structure and efficiency to your programs. You'll learn how to write and execute functions with parameters and return values, design functions to process specific inputs, and implement professional code organization techniques. As you apply these concepts to your adventure game, you'll create command systems for movement, combat, and item usage, transforming your code into a well-structured program that's easier to understand, maintain, and expand.

This module explores data collections and complex data structures, essential for managing groups of related information. You'll learn to create and manipulate arrays for storing collections of items, build objects with properties to model real-world entities, and combine these structures to create sophisticated data relationships. Through practical application in your adventure game, you'll implement a complete inventory system, create detailed item objects, and integrate all course concepts to complete your text adventure game, resulting in a portfolio-ready project that showcases your JavaScript fundamentals.
