Case Statements

A case statement in Ruby provides a way to execute different blocks of code based on the value of a variable or expression. It's an alternative to using multiple if/elsif/else statements, especially when you need to check for several different possible values. The case statement compares a given value against multiple when clauses, and executes the code block associated with the first matching clause. An optional else clause can be included to handle cases where none of the when clauses match.
