Case switch instead of if statement

The switch/case statement is used when you are comparing an integer value against a number of integer constants:

If your code looks something like this:

int x = f();

if (x == 1)
   do the stuff for 1;
else
if (x == 2)
   do the stuff for 2;
else
if (x == 5)
   do the stuff for 5;
else
if (x == 17)
   do the stuff for 17;

you can re-write it to be this:

int x = f();
switch (x)
    {
case 1:
   do the stuff for 1;
   break;
case 2:
   do the stuff for 2;
   break;
case 5:
   do the stuff for 5;
   break;
case 17:
   do the stuff for 17;
   break;
   }
