Go by Example: Switch
Switch statements express conditionals across
many branches.

package main

import (
"fmt"
"time"
)

func main() {

Here’s a basic switch. i := 2


fmt.Print("Write ", i, " as ")
switch i {
case 1:
fmt.Println("one")
case 2:
fmt.Println("two")
case 3:
fmt.Println("three")
}

You can use commas to separate multiple switch time.Now().Weekday() {


expressions in the same case statement. We use case time.Saturday, time.Sunday:
the optional default case in this example as well. fmt.Println("It's the weekend")
default:
fmt.Println("It's a weekday")
}

switch without an expression is an alternate way t := time.Now()


to express if/else logic. Here we also show how the switch {
case expressions can be non-constants. case t.Hour() < 12:
fmt.Println("It's before noon")
default:
fmt.Println("It's after noon")
}

A type switch compares types instead of values. whatAmI := func(i interface{}) {


You can use this to discover the type of an switch t := i.(type) {
interface value. In this example, the variable t will case bool:
fmt.Println("I'm a bool")
have the type corresponding to its clause.
case int:
fmt.Println("I'm an int")
default:
fmt.Printf("Don't know type %T\n", t)
}
}
whatAmI(true)
whatAmI(1)
whatAmI("hey")
}

$ go run switch.go
Write 2 as two
It's a weekday
It's after noon
I'm a bool
I'm an int
Don't know type string

Next example: Arrays.
