Thread: Can I use string or chars in a switch?

I cant figure out how to use string or chars in a switch any pointers

Strings cannot be used in a switch statement. chars can. Its just a limitation of the c++.

Can i get a example of how to use a char cause ive tried

Code:

char c = 'b';
switch(c) {
     case 'a': ...
     case 'b': ...
     case 'c': ...
}

Don't forget that you will need to break out of your switch case.

Code:

char a = 'b';
switch(a) {
  case 'a':
    //do something
    break;
  case 'b':
    // do something
    break;
  default:
    // do something
}

Code:

...

includes breaks .
