break;

case n:
break;
default :
default statement sequence;
}

Decision and Switch Case control statements allow the computer to take a decision as to which statement is to be executed next.

Common programming errors: –

1. The if statement does not include the word then. For this reason, it is an error to write:

if(condition) then
Statement;


2. In the if statement, the condition must be enclosed in parenthesis. Thus, it is an error to write:

if condition
statement;


3. In the if statement, no semicolon follows the word else. For this reason, it is logical error to write.

Now false statement will always execute

if(condition)
true statement;
else;
false statement;

4. Using a single equal sign = (for comparing) instead of a double equal sign = = will be
considered as logical error.
5. In a switch, the integer expression that follows switch must be enclosed in parenthesis. Thus it
is an error to write

switch i
{
………
………

}
