switch(EXPR, …)
| Parameter | Deskripsi |

EXPR |
an expression evaluating to a number or a character string. |
… |
the list of alternatives. If it is intended that EXPR has a character-string value these will be named, perhaps except for one alternative to be used as a ‘default’ value. |

## switch(f, *) with a factor f
ff <- gl(3,1, labels=LETTERS[3:1])
ff[1] # C
## so one might expect " is C" here, but
switch(ff[1], A = "I am A", B="Bb..", C=" is C")# -> "I am A"
## so we give a warning
## Numeric EXPR does not allow a default value to be specified
## -- it is always NULL
for(i in c(-1:3, 9)) print(switch(i, 1, 2 , 3, 4))
## visibility
switch(1, invisible(pi), pi)
switch(2, invisible(pi), pi)
