Usage
case expression: statements
Parameters
expression Any expression.
statements Any statements.
Description
Statement; defines a condition for the switch statement. The statements in the statements
parameter execute if the
expression parameter that follows the case keyword equals the
expression parameter of the switch statement.
If you use the
case statement outside a switch statement, it produces an error and the code
doesn’t compile.
Example
In the following example, if the myNum parameter evaluates to 1, the trace() statement that
follows
case 1 executes; if the myNum parameter evaluates to 2, the trace() statement that
follows
case 2 executes; and so on. If no case expression matches the number parameter, the
trace() statement that follows the default keyword executes.
switch (myNum) {
case 1:
trace ("case 1 tested true");
break;
case 2:
trace ("case 2 tested true");
break;
case 3:
trace ("case 3 tested true");
break;
default:
trace ("no case tested true")
}
