Identifier Pattern

Matches a concrete value. This is how things work in Objective-C's switch implementation:

Here, we have a special case just for the number 5

let number = 4

switch number {

case 5: print(\"it is a 5\")

default: print(\"it is something else\")

}

We can also match strings, see our code below to greet people in their native language.

let language = \"Japanese\"

switch name {

case \"Japanese\": print(\"おはようございます\")

case \"English\": print(\"Hello!\")

case \"German\": print(\"Guten Tag\")

}
