Painless supports all of Java's https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/nutsandbolts/flow.html[
control flow statements] except the `switch` statement.

==== Conditional statements

===== If / Else

[source,painless]
---------------------------------------------------------
if (doc[item].size() == 0) {
// do something if "item" is missing
} else {
// do something else
}
---------------------------------------------------------

==== Loop statements

===== For

Painless also supports the `for in` syntax from Groovy:

[source,painless]
---------------------------------------------------------
for (item : list) {
...
}
---------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------
