Personally, I found TJ's reference to the Wikipedia explanation
helpfull: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switch_statement.
One
of the points it makes is that it is "easier to read and maintain
than an
equivalent series of if-else statements, because it is more
concise."
However, it also warns that ". . .when implemented with fall-through,
switch statements are a frequent source of bugs among programmers new
to the switch statement."
