CONDITIONAL switch STATEMENT

Introduction
• switch statements which are used to perform
only specific block of statements in a program
called Case Control Statements.
• It tests the value of a variable and compares it
with multiple cases. Once the case match is
found, a block of statements associated with
that particular case is executed [1].

• Terminates the loop immediately when
encountered.
Example 1:
• Write a C++ program CONDITIONAL switch
STATEMENT that determine if the first
inputted number is greater or lesser or equal
to the second inputted number.
Example 2:
• Write a C++ program CONDITIONAL switch
STATEMENT that determine operator [+,-,*,/]
to be applied in getting the result of two
inputted numbers.
