Assign result of function within switch to variable - php

Question

here's some pseudo-code (it's not written correctly, the point of my ? is the variable, not the switch):
switch ($action) {
case "1":
//this is a function
case "2":
//this is a function
//etc.
}
How should this be written:
$variable = result of function in case 1.

Answer 1

Your switch statement is wrong . It requires a break keyword between every case
$action = 1;
$result = "Success";
switch ($action) {
case 1:
$variable = $result;
echo $variable;//prints Success
//this is a function
break; // like this
case 2:
//this is a function
break;//
//etc.
}

Answer 2

Just run the function(s) (you can pass args in too) as part of the code within the case / break blocks like this :
$action = 1;
switch ($action) {
case 1:
$variable = someFunctionOne();
break;
case 2:
$variable = someOtherFunctionTwo();
break;
//etc.
}

Answer 3

how to variable the result of php switch.
ex:
<?php
//variables of cases
$var_1 = 1;
$var_2 = 2;
$var_3 = 3;
$var_0 = 0;
//end variables of cases
//action variable
$action = 10;
//end action variable
//start switch
switch ($action) {
case "1":
echo "$var_1;";
break;
case "2":
echo "$var_2;";
break;
case "3":
echo "$var_3;";
break;
default:
echo "$var_0;";
}
//receives the value of the switch.
$switch_result = get_result_case;
//in this my example I need to enter the value of the case in a variable.
?>
in this my example I need to enter the value of the case in a variable.
