Lua Switch Case

C's switch case functions in lua.

Downloading

• For normal Lua, just download the "SwitchCase.lua" into your workspace.
• For Luau, create a ModuleScript and copy the code into it

Usage

There are two ways to import the functions. I don't know why I did this. I was bored.

#1(Needs getfenv()):

require("SwitchCase").init()

#2:

local SwitchCase = require("SwitchCase")
local switch, case, default = SwitchCase.switch, SwitchCase.case, SwitchCase.default

The first way might not work in some ways because I was just testing something and it happened to work. If you use #1, it is suggested that you write this to silence any errors:

switch, case, default = nil, nil, nil -- **NOT LOCAL**

Here is an example of using this:

(Normal Lua):

switch, case, default = nil, nil, nil
require("SwitchCase").init()
local value = 10
switch (value) {
	case (1) {
		function()
			print("The value is 1")
		end
	},
	case (10) {
		function(val) -- first argument is the value
			print("The value is "..val) 
		end
	},
	default {
		function(val)
			print("Unknown Value("..val..")")
		end
	}
}

(Luau):

switch, case, default = nil, nil, nil
require(game.ReplicatedStorage.SwitchCase).init()
local value = 10
switch (value) {
	case (1) {
		function()
			print("The value is 1")
		end
	},
	case (10) {
		function(val)
			print("The value is "..val) 
		end
	},
	default {
		function(val)
			print("Unknown Value("..val..")")
		end
	}
}

This is a very simple module that was coded in like 30 minutes so there might be some bugs.
