Switch statement multiple case choises

Stewe Lundin

If intMonth = 2, 4 or 1 this works just fine but as soon as the value is any other between 3 and 12   exception or 4 the switch statement returns default value of lastday which is 0

Usually this would work and I have used similar code in other switch/case statements elsewhere.

Any suggestions?

Of-course I can use an If/else if statement but this is now a matter of principals.

switch(intMonth){

        case 2:

                  lastday = 28;

                  break;

        case 4|6|9|11:

                  lastday = 30;

                  break;

        case 1|3|5|7|8|10|12:

                  lastday = 31;

}

1 ACCEPTED SOLUTION

Yes, just figured that out as well. This works though:


var intMonth = 6;


var lastday;



switch(intMonth){  


        case 2:  


                  lastday = 28;  


                  break;  


        case 4: case 6: case 9: case 11:  


                  lastday = 30;  


                  break;  


        case 1: case   3: case 5: case 7: case 8: case 10: case 12:  


                  lastday = 31;  


        default:


                  lastday = 1;


}  



gs.print(lastday);



Gives me:
