My favorite example (in real production code) of a switch statement:

switch (type) {
    case A:		/* A, etc. are #define'd */
        ...	/* do stuff for type A */
        /* FALLTHROUGH */
    case B:
        if (type == B) {
             ....	/* do B-only stuff */
        }
        /* FALLTHROUGH */
    case C:
        ...	/* do ABC stuff /*
        break;
    default:
        ...
}
