sample program of switch statement

This program will show to you how switch statement execute by the java compiler.

import java.util.Scanner;

public class SampleSwitch
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
Scanner input=new Scanner(System.in);
//declaration
int num;

System.out.print("Enter a number:");
num=input.nextInt();

Switch(num)
{
  case 1:
  case 3:
  case 5:
  case 7:
  case 9:
    System.out.print("You enter odd number:");
    break;
case 2:
  case 4:
  case 6:
  case 8:
  case 10:
    System.out.print("You enter even number:");

    break;
default:
  System.out.print("Your number you enter is not found in the case");
}


}
}

Switch Case Statement

Switch Case Statement is a type of selection control statement that exists in most modern imperative programming languages (e.g., Pascal, C, C++, C#, and Java). Its purpose is to allow the value of a variable or expression to control the flow of program execution via a multiway branch (or "goto", one of several labels). The main reasons for using a switch include improving clarity, by reducing otherwise repetitive coding, and (if the heuristics permit), offering the potential of faster execution through compiler optimization. In some programming languages, a statement that is syntactically different but conceptually the same as the switch statement is known as a case statement, select statement or inspect instruction.
