The "switch" statement in C++:

Today's Beginner C++ Tutorial teaches you a little about the switch statement. It works as an alternative to the "if" statement and it is much cleaner and much more efficient. The tutorial explains just a little bit about how the switch statement works and how it can help you clean up your programs if you have multiple options.

I hope you've learned a little more about the switch statement from the tutorial as well as from my other tutorials that I've made over the past few months. I hope you enjoy the video and if you have any requests feel free to let me know.
