What did you do?
https://go.dev/play/p/Tt15KxMoRpO
func main() {
for k := range 4 {
switch k {
case 0:
continue
case 2:
break
default:
fmt.Printf("inside switch %d; ", k)
}
fmt.Printf("outside switch %d\n", k)
}
}What did you see happen?
continue statement works for the loop i.e. on the first iteration (k=0) nothing will be printed.
break statement works for the switch, i.e. when k=2 outside switch 2 will be printed.
What did you expect to see?
Both continue and break work for either switch statement or loop statement.
I don't see a value in breaking a switch statement and would prefer both break and continue operating on the first loop switch statement belongs to.
