The most common example of the correct use of a switch within a loop is an inversion of control such as an event handler. In event handler loops, the sequence of events is not known at compile-time, so the repeated switch is both necessary and correct (see event-driven programming, event loop and event-driven finite state machine).
In some languages and programming environments, the use of a case or switch statement is considered superior to an equivalent series of if else if statements because it is: Easier to debug (e.g. setting breakpoints on code vs. a call table, if the debugger has no conditional breakpoint capability) Easier for a person to read
The following is a C-style While loop.It continues looping while x does not equal 3, or in other words it only stops looping when x equals 3.However, since x is initialized to 0 and the value of x is never changed in the loop, the loop will never end (infinite loop).
A PHAR file allows for a Tar, Zip or PHAR formatted archive. Regardless of format, each archive contains three sections: Stub — A PHP file that will bootstrap the archive.

In such case it is always possible to use a function call, but this can be cumbersome and inelegant. For example, to pass conditionally different values as an argument for a constructor of a field or a base class, it is impossible to use a plain if-else statement; in this case we can use a conditional assignment expression, or a function call ...
