+// The "switch" statement lets you match the possible values of an
+// expression and perform a different action for each.
+//
+// This switch:
+//
+//     switch (players) {
+//         1 => startOnePlayerGame(),
+//         2 => startTwoPlayerGame(),
+//         else => {
+//             alert();
+//             return GameError.TooManyPlayers;
+//         }
+//     }
+//
+// Is equivalent to this if/else:
+//
+//     if (players == 1) startOnePlayerGame();
+//     else if (players == 2) startTwoPlayerGame();
+//     else {
+//         alert();
+//         return GameError.TooManyPlayers;
+//     }
+//
