Play C# Fundamentals for Absolute Beginners: (20) Enumerations and the switch Decision Statement
Description
Here, we demonstrate the use of Enumerations because, in the .NET Framework Class Library, properties can often be set only to a predetermined subset of possible values. To illustrate this point, we create our own custom enumeration and then utilize it in a simple application that demonstrates a third Decision statement, the switch.

The Discussion
-
shubhamjindal hey gr8 videos bob!
can u clarify if the use of an 'if-else' makes/does not make the default statement,inside switch, pointless?
-
BobTabor @shubhamjindal: Sorry, I'm not following you on your question. Can you clarify?
-
shubhamjindal @BobTabor: It is certainly not a big issue...
(Referring to the code at 17:50)Whatever the user types, the string will either match with those in enum or the control moves to else statement. So, in any case the default statement inside switch(line 34) will never be executed. Am I correct?
-
Nepster Yes, you are.
