If I want to switch on, say, a method call, I can write this > for equality: > > $result = $this->foo($bar) switch { > 1 => 'hello', > 2 => 'hi', > 3 => 'goodbye' > }; In this case, you can also do: $result = [ 1 => 'hello', 2 => 'hi', 3 => 'goodbye' ][$this->foo($bar)]; With syntax very similar to proposed switch but this is using array.
