PHP: Switch Case
Switch case used as an alternative to if-else-elseif to make it simpler to write conditions that are long and repeative.
We use PHP Switch case as follows for the example mentioned earlier:
<?php
$sunlight = 0;
?><?php
switch ($sunlight){
case "0":
echo "sunlight not present";
break;
case "1":
echo "sunlight present";
break;
default:
echo "Not sure about sunlight";
break;
}
?>This could have done using if-else-elseif also. But, using switch case simplies writing our code and understanding it. Also, note the default case in the switch statement.
