Switch

The switch statement is also a conditional statement, and can handle many types of conditions. You should make use of it when you want to check multiple conditions at once. The basic syntax looks as follows:

Switch (<test-value>) {     <condition> {<action>}     <condition> {<action>} }

It starts with the switch keyword, followed by the value that you want to test and validate the conditions on. Then, the curly braces follow, with a variable number of conditions. Each condition will handle one scriptblock. This scriptblock can be a single line or a complete, multilined script:

# Simple exampleswitch (42){    1 {"It is one."}    2 {"It is two."}    42 {"It is the answer of everything."}}# "It is the answer of everything."

You can add various numbers ...
