How to create switch for strings?

Answer 1

Good question, it stumped me. But, from my short search, there is no such thing. At least, not an easy way to implent it.

Answer 2

Switches don't work with strings or floating point numbers.

You are limited to integers, characters, booleans and enumerations.

Answer 3

Well you aren't able to do it I'm afraid.

For strings, use else-if,

if (str == "Hi") { }
else if (str == "Hello") { }
//if necessary, add more else-if
else { }

Answer 4

I guess its only compatible with intergers?

Answer 5

I need it because I want to create some like command line( in OS Windows).
I can use "if", but "switch" is more compact.

Answer 6

i never really thought of this, very interesting
