note 85439 added to control-structures.break

Breaks are not required within a switch, they simply break the switch from being further processed. <?php $total = 0; switch($i) { case 6: $total = 99; break; case 1: $total += 1; case 2: $total += 2; case 3: $total += 3; case 4: $total += 4; case 5: $total += 5; } ?> Using the above snippet, all of the following would be true: If $i = 6, $total would = 99. If $i = 5, $total would = 5. If $i = 4, $total would = 9. If $i = 3, $total would = 12. If $i = 2, $total would = 14. If $i = 1, $total would = 15. ---- Server IP: 208.69.120.35 Probable Submitter: 69.66.192.192 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/control-structures.break.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/85439 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85439/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85439/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85439/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85439/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85439/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85439/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85439 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/85439 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
