Thread: Equivalent of less than in a switch statement?

Hi, I'm looking for an equivalent for a < or > in a switch statement.
IE:

switch (number){

case 10 <number< 20: blah;
break;
case number >20: bleh;
break;
default: bleg;
break;
}

anyone know how to do this?

You can use if/else statements. Like the code just put here.

I know this, but I would have sworn that there was a work around. (that I have compeletely forgotten)

I really don't want to start changing all my code around =/

i tried searching too... didn't help because I couldn't think of any great key words that would find the answer

Code:

switch (num)
{
      case 1:
      case 2:
      case 3:
      case 4: { cout <<"Less than five";break;}
      
      case 5:
      case 6:
      case 7:
      case 8:
      case 9: { cout<<"Less than ten";break;}
      default: cout<<"Not single digit num";
}

Thats about the best you can do with a switch for this sort of thing. You would probably be better using a different structure. If/else can be useful but be careful not to get elseifheimers disease.

figured, just thought I'd ask....

thnx all
