See: https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/5410 for progress on a
possible switch statement
Also, I would probably recommend that you restructure your code so that you
can use multiple dispatch. Your example is overly simple, so it is hard to
tell you how to solve the problems that might arise.
