c++ switch case code example

Example 1: c++ switch case statement

switch (n)
{
    case 1: // code to be executed if n = 1;
        break;
    case 2: // code to be executed if n = 2;
        break;
    default: // code to be executed if n doesn't match any cases
}

Example 2: switch c++

switch(expression) {
   case 1:
      //equivalent to if(expression == 1){//do someting...}
      //do something...
      break; 
    //if case 1 is true the rest of the statments arn't 
    //evaluated because of the break
   case 45:
      //equivalent to else if(expression == 45){//do someting...}
      //do something...
      break;
    
   // you can have any number of case statements and default has to be last
   default :
      // equivalent to else{//do someting...}
      //do something...
}

switch(expression) {
   case 1:
      //equivalent to if(expression == 1){//do someting...}
      //do something...
   case 45:
      //equivalent to if(expression == 45){//do someting...}
      //do something...
   default :
      //always runs if there are no breaks in any of the cases
      //do something...
}

Example 3: case label in c++

switch(foo) {
  case 1:
    int i = 42; // i exists all the way to the end of the switch
    dostuff(i);
    break;
  case 2:
    dostuff(i*2); // i is *also* in scope here, but is not initialized!
}

Example 4: switch statement c++

switch(expression) {
   case constant-expression  :
      statement(s);
      break; //optional
   case constant-expression  :
      statement(s);
      break; //optional
  
   // you can have any number of case statements.
   default : //Optional
      statement(s);
}

Example 5: how to make a switch case statement in c++

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main(){
   int num = 5;
   switch(num + 2) {
      case 1: 
        cout << "Case1: Value is: " << num << endl;
      case 2: 
        cout << "Case2: Value is: " << num << endl;
      case 3: 
        cout << "Case3: Value is: " << num << endl;
      default: 
        cout << "Default: Value is: " << num << endl;
   }
   return 0;
}

Example 6: c++ switch case

switch(expr) {
  case 1:
    // do something
    break;
  case 2:
    // do something
    break;
  default:
    // do something
}
