The `switch` statement evaluates an expression, matching the expression's value to a `case` clause, and executes statements associated with that `case`, as well as statements in `case`s that follow the matching `case`. ```js const fruit = 'Papayas'; switch (fruit) { case 'Oranges': console.log('Oranges are $0.59 a pound.'); break; case 'Mangoes': case 'Papayas': console.log('Mangoes and papayas are $2.79 a pound.'); break; default: console.log(`Sorry, we are out of ${fruit}.`); } // Mangoes and papayas are $2.79 a pound. ```
