The currency of Switzerland is not the Euro.
The currency of Switzerland is the Swiss frank (or franc), divided into 100 Rappen (or centimes).
Switzerland is surrounded by countries which use the Euro. The Euro is accepted in many border areas and tourist areas in Switzerland.
In general if you pay by Euros, you will be given change in Franks, and you will get an inferior exchange rate to that in banks or cash machines.
The Euro is accepted by SBB (Swiss Federal Railways), all their ticket machines are programmed to accept either Franks or Euros.
The two major supermarket chains, Cooperative and Migros, both accept Euros and the exchange rate is programmed into their tills.
Other than that, it depends where you are. It is best to check before trying to pay in Euros.
