Structured programming offers you the following advantages:
•• simple and clear creation of programs, even large ones
•• standardization of program parts
•• simple program organization
•• easy program changes
•• simple, section by section program test
•• simple system start-up

blocks that contain statements (code) i.e. organization blocks,
program blocks, function blocks or sequence blocks, and blocks that
contain data (data blocks).
