Pascal - Case Else Statement

The case-else statement uses an else term after the case labels, just like an if-then-else construct.

The syntax for the case-else statement is −

case (expression) of
   L1 : S1;
   L2 : S2;
   ...

   Ln: Sn;

Example

The following example illustrates the concept

program checkCase;
var
   grade: char;

begin
   grade := 'F';
   case (grade) of
      'A' : writeln('Excellent!' );
      'B', 'C': writeln('Well done' );
      'D' : writeln('You passed' );

   else
      writeln('You really did not study right!' );
    end;     
   
   writeln('Your grade is  ', grade );
end.

When the above code is compiled and executed, it produces the following result −

You really did not study right!
Your grade is F
