Show use of switch keywords in small code segment?

The "switch" statement is a way of performing selection. It allows you to match a value against a known list. In C#:

// code starts

string mood = "happy";

switch (mood)
{
case "sad":
Console.WriteLine("I'm sorry to hear that you are sad.");
break;
case "happy":
Console.WriteLine("I'm glad to hear that you're happy!");
break;
case "angry":
Console.WriteLine("Try to calm down.");
break;
case "excited":
Console.WriteLine("Wow, what are you excited about?!");
break;
}

// code ends

In this example, mood is equal to happy so the code: Console.WriteLine("I'm glad to hear that you're happy!"); will be executed. A switch is essentially an efficient way of writing a lot of IF statements!

Sorry but - the whole internet is funded by adverts. Companies pay the website owners to have their products or services advertised on their pages. Without adverts, the cost of accessing the internet would be so high - it would only be available to those who could afford it. Internet Service Providers spend thousands on computer equipment - and the staff to maintain it all. Paying for advertising space keeps the cost of providing an internet service low.

How does compression work on a computer?

If you download many programs and files off the Internet, you've probably encountered ZIP files before. This compression system is a very handy invention, especially for Web users, because it lets you reduce the overall number of bits and bytes in a file so it can be transmitted faster over slower Internet connections, or take up less space on a disk. Once you download the file, your computer uses a program such as WinZip or Stuffit to expand the file back to its original size. If everything works correctly, the expanded file is identical to the original file before it was compressed.

Most types of computer files are fairly redundant -- they have the same information listed over and over again. File-compression programs simply get rid of the redundancy. Instead of listing a piece of information over and over again, a file-compression program lists that information once and then refers back to it whenever it appears in the original program.
