You have apparently mistaken me for someone who's worried. I don't use Python, I was
just curious as to why a construct that is found, not only to be useful in 95% of other
languages, but is generally considered more flexible and readable than the if-elif, was
missing in Python. (your link "Switch Statement Code Smell" not withstanding)
Have a great day :)
So you would rather write something like:-
switch (x):
case COW:
moo()
break
case DUCK:
quack()
break
default IDUNNO:
panic()
than:-
x.makeNoise()
?
