I have noticed that switch/case statements are coming to Python, so I thought it would be amusing to release the 101002938662893028482039th "Missing switch/case package" to this platform.
import switchem
MONKEY = 1
ELEPHANT = 2
GIRAFFE = 3
HORSE = 4
SQUIRREL = 5
SQUID = 6
COW = 7
SARCASTIC_FRINGEHEAD = 8
with switchem(HORSE) as case:
if case(MONKEY):
print("It is a monkey")
raise case
if case(ELEPHANT, GIRAFFE, HORSE):
print("It is not a monkey for sure")
if case(SQUIRREL):
print("It could be a squirrel")
raise case
print("It is definitely not a monkey, elephant, giraffe, horse, or squirrel")
This has the fall-through behaviour (fall-through will activate as soon as the correct value is checked). To "break", raise the case object within the context.
