Explain nested switch case in C language
Problem
Write a C program to check the entered password by the user is valid or not based on his/her ID using nested switch case.
Solution
The solution is explained below −
In C language, we can write inner switch which is placed in an outer switch.
The case values of the inner and outer switch can have common values.
Rules
- An expression executes to a result.
- Constants and unique values must be used for case labels.
- Case labels has to be end with a colon ( : ).
- A break keyword has to be included in each case.
- There can be only one default label.
- We can write nested multiple switch statements.
Example
Following is the C program to check the entered password by the user is valid or not based on his/her ID using nested switch case −
#include <stdio.h> int main(){ int userid; int pwd; printf("enter userid:
"); scanf("%d",&userid); switch (userid){ case 1234: printf("enter password:
"); scanf("%d", & pwd); switch (pwd){ case 0000: printf("Tutorials Point
"); break; default: printf("incorrect password"); break; } break; default: printf("incorrect userid"); break; } }

Run 1:enter userid: 1234 enter password: 0000 Tutorials Point Run 2: enter userid: 1234 enter password: 234 incorrect password
