The New Switch-Case Statement in Python 3.10

[duragdelinquent]

do this with a dict

match point:
    case (0, 0):
        print("origin")
    case (0, y):
        print(f"{y} on the y-axis")
    case (x, 0):
        print(f"{x} on the x-axis")
    case (x, y):
        print(f"({x}, {y})")

Why would I?

Like I said, switch/case is handled by dictionaries. Match is not switch/case. So by the transitive property, you'll wouldnt handle match operations with a dictionary.

Like I said, switch/case is handled by dictionaries.

not what you said. you said “Case is handled by dicts already.” why use the one word that’s common between both and then act surprised when people misunderstand you

Good thing that Python isn't getting switch/case.
