+==========
+Flow
+==========
+
+.. versionadded:: 0.10.2
+
+The ``flow`` macros allow a programmer to direct the flow of his program with
+greater ease.
+   
+   
+Macros
+======
+
+.. _guard:
+.. _switch:
+
+guard
+-----
+
+``guard`` allows you to guard against a condition.
+
+
+Usage: `(guard (cond1) (body1) (cond2) (body2) ...)`
+
+Example:
+
+.. code-block:: hy
+
+    (require hy.contrib.flow)
+                
+    (defn army-greeter [age height]
+        (guard
+            (< age 18) (print "You are too young!")
+            (< height 170) (print "You are too small!")
+            True        (print "Welcome aboard!")))
+
+    
+switch
+-----
+
+``switch`` allows you to run code based on the value of a variable.
+A final extra body allows for a default case.
+
+
+Usage: `(switch var (cond1) (body1) (cond2) (body2) ... )`
+
+Example:
+
+.. code-block:: hy
+
+    (require hy.contrib.flow)
+                
+    (defn bmi-commenter [bmi]
+        (switch bmi
+            (<= 18.5) (print "you are underweight!")
+            (<= 25.0) (print "apparently normal")
+            (<= 30) (print "a little too heavy, but ok")
+                     (print  "You are a whale!")))
