    SWITCH STATEMENT

    WHAT IS A SWITCH STATEMENT?

    ❖ Switch statements are another way of handling decision making in your program.

    ❖ Switch statements work just like if-else statements.

    ❖ The reason when they are used is when you have a bunch of if else if statements and it becomes
    difficult to read then you it change your code to use Switch statements.

    ❖ A switch statement allows a variable to be tested for equality against a list of values.

    ❖ It is a multiple choice selection statement.

    ❖ It will be executed according to user choice.
