Does the C# switch statment need a break;

Answer 1

You need some statement, either break or goto.

Answer 2

Every case needs to have either a break; or goto case statement in C#

Answer 3

It requires the break or you'll get a compiler error. You can have multiple cases with one block of code but control cannot fall through to the next case.

Answer 4

You use a break in C#, just like in C++. However, if you omit the break you must replace it with another other control transfer (e.g. goto case 1;).
