Switch is a loop that is used in c++ to find the many scenarios of an event or object. For example, let's test to see the many scenarios of if someone chooses an item from a menu.
#include <iostream> int main() { int choice; cout << "Choose an option:" << endl; cout << "1. OJ" << endl; cout << "2. Milk"<<endl; cout << "3. Water " << endl; cout << "4. Soda" << endl; cout << "5. Gatorade" << endl; cin >> choice; // notice the {}, these are required for switch switch(choice) { // choosing the OJ option case 1: cout << "OJ it is" << endl; break; // choosing the milk option case 2: cout << "Milk it is" << endl; break; // choosing the water option case 3: cout << "Water it is" << endl; break; // choosing the soda option case 4: cout << "Soda it is" << endl; break; // choosing the gatorade option case 5: cout << "Gatorade it is" << endl; break; // this is the default // it is used in case none of the cases (scenarios) above match whatever is being tested // this is optional default: cout << "I'm sorry, but we're out of that" << endl; break; } return 0; }
