Switch.pm provides the syntax and semantics for an explicit case
|
|
|
|
|
mechanism for Perl. The syntax is minimal, introducing only the
|
|
|
|
|
keywords switch and case and conforming to the general pattern of
|
|
|
|
|
existing Perl control structures. The semantics are particularly
|
|
|
|
|
rich, allowing any one (or more) of nearly 30 forms of matching to
|
|
|
|
|
be used when comparing a switch value with its various cases.
