using an object as a switch code example

Example 1: javascript object instead of switch

const dogSwitch = (breed) => ({
  "border": "Border Collies are good boys and girls.",
  "pitbull": "Pit Bulls are good boys and girls.",
  "german": "German Shepherds are good boys and girls."
})[breed]
dogSwitch("border") // "Border Collies are good boys and girls."

Example 2: javascript object instead of switch

function getSnack (type) {
  var snack;
  function isDrink () {
    return snack = 'Drink';
  }
  function isFood () {
    return snack = 'Food';
  }
  var snacks = {
    'coke': isDrink,
    'pepsi': isDrink,
    'cookies': isFood,
    'crisps': isFood,
  };
  return snacks[type]();
}

var snack = getSnack('coke');
console.log(snack); // 'Drink'
