6 | NAME |
7 | Switch - A switch statement for Perl |
8 | |
9 | DESCRIPTION |
10 | |
11 | Switch.pm provides the syntax and semantics for an explicit case |
12 | mechanism for Perl. The syntax is minimal, introducing only the |
13 | keywords C<switch> and C<case> and conforming to the general pattern |
14 | of existing Perl control structures. The semantics are particularly |
15 | rich, allowing any one (or more) of nearly 30 forms of matching to |
16 | be used when comparing a switch value with its various cases. |
