switch is a loop which is used for checking various conditions and print corresponding matter.
switch(a)//where a is that whose condition you have to check.
#include
main()
{
char a;
printf("enter a char.");
scanf("%c",&a);
switch(a)
{
case 'a':printf("vowel");break;
case 'e':printf("vowel");break;
case 'i':printf("vowel");break;
case 'o':printf("vowel");break;
case 'u':printf("vowel");break;
default:printf("consonent");
}
}
SWITCH is a shortcut to avoid a long series of nested IF statements.
If you have a loop in your switch statement or around your switch statement, you can use the continue statement in that. You cannot use a continue statement outside of a loop (do, for, or while).
Default clause in switch statement used to indicate that the desired option is not available with the switch case statement. it is similar to else statement of if statement which is used when the condition does not satisfy.
The control structures used in java script are if-statement, for-loop, for-in loop, while loop,do-while loop, switch-statement, with-statement. try-catch-finally statements.
Ends the case statement. Without it, any code after where the break; is supposed to be will get executed as well until it does encounter a break; or the end of the switch.Code Example:char cTest = 'a';switch(cTest) {case 'a':/* Code here gets executed. */case 'b': //* Code here gets executed. */case 'c':/* Code here gets executed. */break;case 'd':/* Code here won't be executed. */default:/* Code here won't be executed. */}
In some languages and programming environments, a case or switch statement is considered easier to read and maintain than an equivalent series of if-else statements, because it is more concise. However, when implemented with fall-through, switch statements are a frequent source of bugs among programmers new to the switch statement.
If you have a loop in your switch statement or around your switch statement, you can use the continue statement in that. You cannot use a continue statement outside of a loop (do, for, or while).
The if statement is used to select among two alternatives. It uses a boolean expression todecide which alternative should be executed. The switch statement is used to select among multiple alternatives. It uses an int expression to determine which alternativeshould be executed.

In java, a switch statement is used to simplify a long list of 'if' statements. A switch statement takes the form of:switch (variableName){case condition1; command1;case condition2; command2;...}
The if statement is used to select among two alternatives. It uses a boolean expression todecide which alternative should be executed. The switch statement is used to select among multiple alternatives. It uses an int expression to determine which alternativeshould be executed.
we can use switch statement in multiple time but in if statement we can not use multiple time
If statement is single selection statement,whereas the switch statement is multiple selective.
The break statement is used to exit a loop or switch-case.
The control structures used in java script are if-statement, for-loop, for-in loop, while loop,do-while loop, switch-statement, with-statement. try-catch-finally statements.
Ends the case statement. Without it, any code after where the break; is supposed to be will get executed as well until it does encounter a break; or the end of the switch.Code Example:char cTest = 'a';switch(cTest) {case 'a':/* Code here gets executed. */case 'b': //* Code here gets executed. */case 'c':/* Code here gets executed. */break;case 'd':/* Code here won't be executed. */default:/* Code here won't be executed. */}
Case is used to label each branch in the switch statement in Java Program
An else statement is comparing to items, while a switch statement is used to compare multiple items. So if you need multiple results from one statement use a switch but for booleans or very specific functions use a if else statement. Else If ex. if(a=6){System.out.println("It is six");} else(){System.out.println("It is not six");} Switch ex. switch(a){ case 1: System.out.println("it is one"); break; case 2: System.out.println("it is two"); break; default: System.out.println("it is not one or two"); break; } Basically a switch is a good way to check against a lot of possibilities.
