CHALLENGE:

In the Happy Valley School System, children are classified by age as follows: less than 2, ineligible 2, toddler 3-5, early childhood 6-7, young reader 8-10, elementary 11 and 12, middle 13, impossible 14-16, high school 17-18, scholar greater than 18, ineligible Given an int variable age, write a switch statement that prints out, on a line by itself, the appropriate label from the above list based on age.

SOLUTION:

switch (age){
   case 0:
   case 1:
      System.out.println("ineligible");
      break;
   case 2:
      System.out.println("toddler");
      break;
   case 3:
   case 4:
   case 5:
      System.out.println("early childhood");
      break;
   case 6:
   case 7:
      System.out.println("young reader");
      break;
   case 8:
   case 9:
   case 10:
      System.out.println("elementary");
      break;
   case 11:
   case 12:
      System.out.println("middle");
      break;
   case 13:
      System.out.println("impossible");
      break;
   case 14:
   case 15:
   case 16:
      System.out.println("high school");
      break;
   case 17:
   case 18:
      System.out.println("scholar");
      break;
   default:
      System.out.println("ineligible");
}
