Java switch statement example (switch structure and syntax)

Here's a sample Java method that takes an int argument and attempts to turn that int into a month string, using a Java switch case statement to make that decision: private String getMonthAsString(int monthAsInt) { String monthString = null; // the java switch/case statement switch (monthAsInt) { case 1: monthString = 'January'; break; case 2: monthString = 'February'; break; case 3: monthString = 'March'; break; case 4: monthString = 'April'; break; case 5: monthString = 'May'; ...

Note that I wrote that code that way to keep it short, but it can also be written in a longer form like this: private String getMonthAsString(int monthAsInt) { String monthString = null; // the java switch/case statement switch (monthAsInt) { case 1: monthString = 'January'; break; case 2: monthString = 'February'; break; case 3: monthString = 'March'; break; case 4: monthString = 'April'; break; ...
