[c#] How add "or" in switch statements?

This is what I want to do:

switch(myvar)
{
    case: 2 or 5:
    ...
    break;

    case: 7 or 12:
    ...
    break;
    ...
}

I tried with "case: 2 || 5" ,but it didn't work.

The purpose is to not write same code for different values.

This question is related to c# switch-statement

The answer is


case 2:
case 5:
do something
break;

You may do this as of C# 9.0:

switch(myvar)
{
    case 2 or 5:
        // ...
        break;

    case 7 or 12:
        // ...
        break;
    // ...
}

The example for switch statement shows that you can't stack non-empty cases, but should use gotos:

// statements_switch.cs
using System;
class SwitchTest 
{
   public static void Main()  
   {
      Console.WriteLine("Coffee sizes: 1=Small 2=Medium 3=Large"); 
      Console.Write("Please enter your selection: "); 
      string s = Console.ReadLine(); 
      int n = int.Parse(s);
      int cost = 0;
      switch(n)       
      {         
         case 1:   
            cost += 25;
            break;                  
         case 2:            
            cost += 25;
            goto case 1;           
         case 3:            
            cost += 50;
            goto case 1;             
         default:            
            Console.WriteLine("Invalid selection. Please select 1, 2, or3.");            
            break;      
       }
       if (cost != 0)
          Console.WriteLine("Please insert {0} cents.", cost);
       Console.WriteLine("Thank you for your business.");
   }
}

You do it by stacking case labels:

switch(myvar)
{
    case 2:
    case 5:
    ...
    break;

    case 7: 
    case 12:
    ...
    break;
    ...
}

Case-statements automatically fall through if you don't specify otherwise (by writing break). Therefor you can write

switch(myvar)
{
   case 2:
   case 5:
   {
      //your code
   break;
   }

// etc... }
