The Spoils of the Switch and Case Statements

Drops read-ability quite a bit imo though.

It was mainly just for my curiosity because I don't even have Graal installed right now. I was wondering for something along the lines of this.

PHP Code:

switch(cmd){
  case "command1":
    break;
  case "command2":
    break;
  case "help": default:  // if help or no params are given then continue
    sendtorc("commandlist");
    break;
}

Best way is to do it like this, as suggested in original post:

PHP Code:

switch (cmd) {
  case "command1":
  case "command2":
    dostuff;
  break;
  
  default:
    domorestuff;
} 


either command1 or command2 will activate "dostuff;" and doesn't really hurt readability.

I assumed that was just part of the example, I read it forever ago. Should have reread it.

Second and this should be added to the bible as well.

Seriously, is it possible to change the title of this to Switch and Case?
So then when I google Switch, or Case, I won't have to be redirected from another forum spot to here, and come here at the start?

You know the title now so you can use the forums search button

Try using a bookmark; modern web browsers are very good at navigating the web, and, surprisingly, you're not the first person who has ever needed to save a page for later.

Also keep this page handy.

I do not use the forums, I use google since it usually has more value then people telling others who are asking in the forums how to do something to search the forums. The searches, which by the way don't always turn up what you are looking for, aren't very great nor are they organized.

Then you can get into the many people who tell you to use the wikia and the bible which are even more horrible than the forums lol...

Also, you could have said that the first three times I had to search for it, not everyone remembers every single thing they find. ;]
I for one have horrible memory, and would rather look for "GS2 Graal Cases" on google. In turn that would send me to Astrams post about Switches on here, which you then have to scroll down to see someone saying to go to the spoils of switch... Redundant clicks which could be simplified by naming something correctly.

I'm probably not the first person who has had to replace my hard drive in the last four weeks twice either.

And I highly doubt myself bookmarking it is going to help the others who might need this as well...








Thank you both for your help, you have both changed my life in some way. :]
I'd appreciate it if the question that was asked was actually answered instead of veering off topic next time however..

I can't say I appreciate the person who spammed my Green, Red, and Neutral bar comment thing though. At least comment in something relating to the reason of the picking...

Lol... I am told I am being an ass, because selfishly people are telling me to do things, when I'd like something done for everyone else to have easier access to this..

I'm welcome to more red bars if anyone likes.
And I'd still like the name to be changed so many people can find this easier.

Just bookmark it. The title is fine. Isn't this page bookmarked on the graal bible too?

Edit: It is! Bookmark this page: http://wiki.graal.net/index.php/Crea...rol_Structures

I try not to use Graal Bible unless I absolutely have to, if you go to table of contents there is basically nothing when one should expect a list from A-Z of commands or topics lol... Also, searching for things on it doesn't seem reliable either... D:

Eventually I'd like to make a list of commands GS2 and 'better' details how to make everything. Thank you though..

By the way, I missed this, still not relating to my question, I'm glad you posted it. This does look like it has some useful things!

I might be turning my computer in for another due to the Lemon Law which I will have to look up on.. So I can just search for this page to find this lol..

Dear mod who changed the thread title,

Since you're renaming it, please rename it to 'switch case statement' not 'switch and case statements'. What you've done is just wrong, considering no one (excluding special_lord2) around here has ever referred to it as a case statement.

Isn't name calling a little uncalled for? And if you'd like to check around the posts, you are actually the only one who has used the word statement(s).

I have only said Switch and Case, and Switch, or Case.
If you are going to make fun of me, at least do it with a little bit more dignity lol...

Since the question is not registering through anyone's head, the question as stated basically asks to rename a thread. Renaming a thread on http://forums.graalonline.com/ has absolutely nothing to do with Graal Bible (Or so I believe).

Once again, is it possible that this thread get renamed to something a little more relevant?

Also, fowlplay4, I believe either you are seeing something that I am not, or if I am correct, the name was never changed and has always been "The Spoils of the Switch and Case". I'm not sure if statements were ever in it though..
