<Tutorial> :Switch in C# ( c++ similar ).

[Dynamic Sysop]

in vb6 / .net you use Select Case , in C# / C++ we use Switch , here's an example in C# . i think C++ is pretty much the same

private void button3_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
for (int x=0; x!=6; x++)// count from 0 to 5 { you can use x<6 also }
{
switch(x)
{
case 0:this.Text="starting count";//form's caption
break;
case 1:MessageBox.Show("number1");
   break;
case 2:MessageBox.Show("number2");
   break;
case 3:MessageBox.Show("number3");
break;
case 4:MessageBox.Show("number4");
break;
case 5:this.Text="done counting";//update form's caption
break;
}
}

}

Yes, quite simela.

this is how it would be (precisely) in C++


//int random is a random number between 1 and 5

void ReadNumber(int random) {
MessageBox(NULL,"This Function Tells You The Value Of random","Info",MB_OK);
switch (random) {
case 1[img]http://proboards8.com/boardimages/sad.gif[/img]br]MessageBox(NULL,"The Value Of random Is 1","Result",MB_OK);
break;
case 2[img]http://proboards8.com/boardimages/sad.gif[/img]br]MessageBox(NULL,"The Value Of random Is 2","Result",MB_OK);
break;
case 3[img]http://proboards8.com/boardimages/sad.gif[/img]br]MessageBox(NULL,"The Value Of random Is 3","Result",MB_OK);
break;
case 4[img]http://proboards8.com/boardimages/sad.gif[/img]br]MessageBox(NULL,"The Value Of random Is 4","Result",MB_OK);
break;
case 5[img]http://proboards8.com/boardimages/sad.gif[/img]br]MessageBox(NULL,"The Value Of random Is 5","Result",MB_OK);
default[img]http://proboards8.com/boardimages/sad.gif[/img]br]MessageBox(NULL,"The Value Of random Is Unknown","Error",MB_OK);
}
}
