Introduction
• It is a decision-making statement in C.
• It allows a variable to be tested for
equality against a list of values.
• Each value is called a case.
• The variable being switched on is checked
for each switch case.
Syntax
switch(x) {
case 1:
statement; // if expression equals Value1
break; //optional
case 2:
statement; // if expression equals Value2
break;
……
default: //optional
Statement; // if expression is other than the specific values above
}
C program to check if the addition of two numbers results in
either a total of 5 or 4.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>
int main() {
int num1 = 1;
int num2 = 3;
switch(num1 + num2){
case 5:
printf("The addition of %d and %d results in 5\n", num1, num2);
break;
case 4:
printf("The addition of %d and %d results in 4\n", num1, num2);
break;
default:
printf("The addition of %d and %d does not result in either 4 or 5\n", num1,
num2);
}
getch();
return 0;
}
Grade Checking C Program using Switch Statement
#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>
int main(){
char grade;
printf("Enter your grade: ");
scanf("%c",&grade);
switch(grade){
case 'A' :
printf("Outstanding!\n" );
break;
case 'B':
printf("Excellent!\n");
break;
case 'C':
printf("Well Done\n" );
break;
case 'D':
printf("You passed\n" );
break;
case 'F':
printf("Better try again\n" );
break;
default :
printf("Invalid grade\n" );
}
printf("Your grade is %c\n", grade);
getch();
return 0;
}
