There's no "no-case-switch". As I understand it, every switch must have at least one case. I'm not very comfortable about the no-additional-indentation-after-colon syntax too, but I also realize that requiring two levels of indentation for a single statement is too much. > Here's another syntax off the top of my head - put the first case in the > switch statement? > switch biscuit.type if 'digestive': > ... > elif in 'jammy_dodger', 'garibaldi': > ... > else: > ... For a large switch, it's too easy to confuse this with an if-else in case the initial switch is off-screen.
