6NAME
7    Switch - A switch statement for Perl
8
9DESCRIPTION
10
11    Switch.pm provides the syntax and semantics for an explicit case
12    mechanism for Perl. The syntax is minimal, introducing only the
13    keywords C<switch> and C<case> and conforming to the general pattern
14    of existing Perl control structures. The semantics are particularly
15    rich, allowing any one (or more) of nearly 30 forms of matching to
16    be used when comparing a switch value with its various cases.
