Explanation

Branching in programming refers to the use of decision-making structures within the code, which allows the execution flow to change based on conditions. When a programmer needs to add a new subroutine that operates under specific conditions within an existing application, branching (such as if-else or switch-case statements) would be used to integrate this new functionality seamlessly. This allows the application to execute different sections of code based on the requirements of the new product line.
