According to the book, you need to use break there:
The scope of each case can’t be empty. As a result, you must include at least one statement following the colon (:) of each case label. Use a single break statement if you don’t intend to execute any code in the body of a matched case.
let vegetable = "red pepper"
var vegetableComment: String = "Nothing"
switch vegetable {
case "cucumber", "watercress":
break // does nothing
case let x where x.hasSuffix("pepper"):
vegetableComment = "Is it a spicy \(x)?"
default:
vegetableComment = "Everything tastes good in soup."
}
The cleanest solution I've found is to simply include your last statement in the switch case as your default. This avoids the need to add break or other unnecessary statements while still covering all possible cases.
For example:
switch myVar {
case 0:
myOtherVar = "Red"
case 1:
myOtherVar = "Blue"
default:
myOtherVar = "Green"
}
