public static void main(String as[])
{
byte b=1;

Hi Vidya,
Default is treat as label. But switch case matches default Label.
So nothing prints here. Am I correct?
cheers!!!

Hi Vidya,
I think java takes 'Default' as a label rather than a keyword 'default'. So try using 'default' instead of Default.

Shouldn't it give a compilation error. Default is not a legal case label.

hi vidya
i tried using the different type other thant the int.
i can't able to use the double in the switch case.
is the int is the only type used in the switch or any other type we can use.

class interest
{
public static void main(String as[]) 
{
double b=1.0;
switch(b)
{
case 1.0:
System.out.println("Hai I am FIVE");
 
default:
System.out.println("Default");
}
}
}

we can use int,short,char,byte(within the range) in the switch statement.

Hi,

Nithya U r xactly right,

Vidya, The answer is nothing, because it takes Default simply as label not as default.
