I have the following piece of code but yet when I enter 12 I still get You an old person Isn t 9 - 15 the numbers 9 UNTIL 15 How else do I handle multiple values with one case int age Convert ToInt32 txtBoxAge Text switch age case 1 - 8 MessageBox Show You are only age years old n You must be kidding right nPlease fill in your real age break case 9 - 15 MessageBox Show You are only age years old n That s too young break case 16-100 MessageBox Show You are age years old n Perfect break default MessageBox Show You an old person break

1 - 8 -7 9 - 15 -6 16 - 100 -84 You have case -7 break case -6 break case -84 break Either use case 1 case 2 case 3 etc or perhaps more readable use if age gt 1 amp amp age lt 8 else if age gt 9 amp amp age lt 15 else if age gt 16 amp amp age lt 100 else etc

Switch: Multiple values in one case?

The Solution to Switch: Multiple values in one case? is

1 - 8 = -7

9 - 15 = -6

16 - 100 = -84

You have:

case -7:
    ...
    break;
case -6:
    ...
    break;
case -84:
    ...
    break;

Either use:

case 1:
case 2: 
case 3:

etc, or (perhaps more readable) use:

if(age >= 1 && age <= 8) {
     ...
} else if (age >= 9 && age <= 15) {
     ...
} else if (age >= 16 && age <= 100) {
     ...
} else {
     ...
}

etc
