C# Programming Video Tutorials Lesson 4: Switch Statements

[ad5665]

thanks ive been searching for a way to convert int to work with switches, but i was trying to use a string then back to int.

[blackmage0]

thanks mate, you have saved me, and your probally going to quite alot today with this piece of programming i have got to do

[babyyoyoboy]

@blackmage0 Just message me if you need more help :P

You don't need to put break, unless you don't want a fall through effect

You can also put default anywhere not just the bottom

Consider this:

for default and condition A you want statements X, Y and Z

for condition B you want statements Y and Z

for condition C you want statement Z

then you could do:...

Thanks for this and all other videos. Free knowledge at this convenience is seriously awesome. I really appreciate everyone who does this stuff.

The C# language is 10000000000times easier the C language

[nic0003]

I dont understand what the Convert.ToInt32 means...... what does the 32 mean??

[kb3301]

By far the best C# instruction out there!

I'm working in Expression Blend and VS and have to load a dynamic url into the MediaElement of an silverlight media project I'm doing. I'm usiing C# in the code behind. Know anything about how to do that?

[nickrohn93]

you just fixed my entire program by showing me the conversion lol. thanks

im glad i could help

if you ant to change the color and add A title here is a few tips

ok first you add this source above

int myInt;

Console.Title = "YOUR TXT HERE");

Console.ForegroundColor = ConsoleColor.Red;

Note you can also use Blue,Green,DarkGreen and mant other colors

[babyyoyoboy]

First off...

int myInt; right there is worthless...

Second...

Console.Title = "YOUR TXT HERE"); would cause an error because there is a random )

The 3rd line you provided would compile but you didn't provide any specifics about how the line works...

above is my email address without the spaces

[spiw117]

[spiw117]

I left my account on ur youtube account page

[babyyoyoboy]

i didn't get any o.o

send me a message

[spiw117]

ive tried loads of time to leave a comment.but its not workin, see if this one sticks!

[babyyoyoboy]

got this one

[spiw117]

do u know the cod to get min and max for a set of numbers manually entered by a user,and aslo min and max for a set of random numbers. i know u have to use math.min and math.max somehow.... but im not sure of the entire code sequence, thanks if u get chance... : )

[babyyoyoboy]

Do you have an AOL Messenger or Windows Live Messenger acc?

It'd be easier to talk to you there.

[spiw117]

is it possible to have an else statement in a switch or do i have to start again?

[babyyoyoboy]

Since cases are pre-defined, I can't see why you would have an if statement, but it is possible.

[spiw117]

Yea I can do the maths.... just not the programming

[babyyoyoboy]

Like I said, switch statements are for pre-determined cases, if you want more flexibility, go with if else statements

[spiw117]

the first switch is to have:

case1: =random numbers

case 2: =manual input

then inside these 2 you can choose from the second switch:

case1: scaled sum

case 2: average

case 3: min and max

the switches work fine but i dont know how to find the above cases 1, 2 and 3. if u cud give me a little help id be very thankful : )

[babyyoyoboy]

I gotta go to school now...Look into the Math class if you are just looking for the functions, but switch statements are meant for pre-determined cases =/

[spiw117]

not sure if u got that reply i sent u a second ago... doesnt show it on the comment list?

[babyyoyoboy]

I don't think so

[spiw117]

ahhh, u cant fall from one case to another, does this mean i have to use a loop?

[spiw117]

Hi thanks for the videos they're a great help.. but i was wonderin if u can help with this example... i have 2 primary switches (called option) which both contain a further secondary switch (called option2) inside them. does it matter if i call the cases in the priamary switch called 1 and 2, with cases 1 and 2 in the secondary switch. they seem to conflict eachother eventhough the switches have different names and i have enough breaks to seperate them, if u get chance to answer it wud be great!

[babyyoyoboy]

I'd like to know why you need two switch statements actually o.o

I'm not so sure about having one inside one, perhaps a theoretical snippet would help me understand your problem.

[annils92]

I like your lessons, they are explaining pretty much what they teach us in school.

Thank you.
