Switch expressions are introduced in Java SE 12, 19 March 2019, as a preview feature. Here a whole switch expression can be used to return a value. There is also a new form of case label, case L-> where the right-hand-side is a single expression. This also prevents fall through and requires that cases are exhaustive.
The switch parser function, coded as "#switch", selects the first matching branch in a list of choices, acting as a case statement. Each branch can be a value , an expression ( calculation ), or a template call, [ 1 ] evaluated and compared to match the value of the switch.
switch (variable) { case case 1: instructions «break_or_jump_statement» ... «default: instructions break_or_jump_statement»} All non-empty cases must end with a break or goto case statement (that is, they are not allowed to fall-through to the next case). The default case is not required to come last.
Switch statements (or case statements, or multiway branches) compare a given value with specified constants and take action according to the first constant to match. There is usually a provision for a default action ("else", "otherwise") to be taken if no match succeeds. Switch statements can allow compiler optimizations, such as lookup tables.
Two types of labels can be put in a switch statement. A case label consists of the keyword case, followed by an expression that evaluates to integer constant. A default label consists of the keyword default. Case labels are used to associate an integer value with a statement in the code.

Duff realized that to handle cases where count is not divisible by eight, the assembly programmer's technique of jumping into the loop body could be implemented by interlacing the structures of a switch statement and a loop, putting the switch's case labels at the points of the loop body that correspond to the remainder of count/8: [1]
