In Java, as in other programming languages, a decision construct is used to control the sequence of instructions that are executed under certain conditions. It allows the programmer the power to take certain actions based on various input conditions. In this project you will create an application that yields a zodiac sign based on an input of birth month and day. Note: This course works best for learners who are based in the North America region. We’re currently working on providing the same experience in other regions.
