Why not just concatenate, using "else if"? For example,
if (condition1) {
action 1
} else if (condition2) {
action 2
} else if (condition3) {
action 3
} else {
default action
}
There is a switch() function if the condition is something that can be
computed in advance, e.g. from the example on its man page:
answer <- switch(type,
mean = mean(x),
median = median(x),
trimmed = mean(x, trim = .1))
