    This document outlines the switch statement in C++ programming. It explains that a switch statement is used to select one of several alternatives based on the value of a single variable, which can be an integer or character but not a float or double. The syntax includes the switch keyword followed by a variable in parentheses, then a code block with case labels and statements. Examples are provided to illustrate using a switch statement to output colors or grades based on a character variable, and bulb lifetimes based on an integer wattage input.

    Lecture Outline:
    • Switch statement
    SWITCH Statement

    ⮚Used to select one of several alternatives

    ⮚BASED on the value of a single variable.

    ⮚This variable may be an int or a char but


    NOT a float or double.
    SWITCH Statement

    SYNTAX

    Switch (variable)
    {
    case constant_1:action_1;break;

    case constant_2:action_2;break;

    case constant_3:action_3;break;

    default:action_4;

    }
    The switch statement
    The switch statement
    SWITCH Statement
    Example

    char color ;
    cout<<“Enter a color: “;
    cin>>color;
    switch (color)
    {
    case 'r':
    case 'R': cout<<"red\n"; break;
    case 'b':
    case 'B': cout<<" blue\n"; break;
    case 'y':
    case 'Y': cout<<" yellow\n"; break;
    }
    SWITCH Statement
    Example
    char grade ;
    cout<<“Enter your letter grade: “;
    cin>>grade;
    switch ( grade )
    {
    case 'a':
    case 'A' : cout<<"Excellent Job”; break;
    case 'b':
    case 'B' : cout<<" Very Good "; break;
    case 'c':
    case 'C' : cout<<" Not bad "; break;
    case 'f' :
    case 'F' : cout<<" Fail"; break;
    default : cout<<"Wrong Input ";
    }
    SWITCH Statement
    Example
    Write a program to ask the int bright ;
    user for the brightness of a light cout<<“Enter the bulb brightness: “<<endl;
    bulb (in Watts), and print out cin>>bright;
    the expected lifetime: switch ( bright )
    {
    case 25 : cout<<" Lifetime is 2500 hours"; break;
    Brightness Lifetime in case 40 :
    hours
    case 60 : cout<<" Lifetime is 1000 hours" ; break;
    25 2500 case 75 :
    40, 60 1000 case 100 : cout<<" Lifetime is 750 hours "; break;
    default : cout<<" Wrong Input ";
    75, 100 750
    }
    otherwise 0
    //Program to implement a simple calculator using if-else statements
    #include<iostream>
