Switch is a statement that tests a variable for equality in a list of given conditions. It is somehow a summarized version of IF when you have a lot of conditions. 

This flow chart may help you understand better, and this webpage too:

The default syntax of switch goes like this:

switch (expression)
case “condition” : outcome
[default:statement]    //This is used when the variable input isn’t a valid option.

So, for the purpose of this mastery, lets create a program were the user can input his points on masteries so far and tell him if his good or screwed. Do as follows:

1. Create our “basic” program.
2. Inside the int, declare a char variable with an assigned value.
3. Use switch to condition the outcome and tell the user if his good or screwed.

Your program should look something like this:

Now let’s test it:

Let’s just play with another value:

Great! Now you know what and how to use switch conditional.
