Question

I am finding an unexpected token in the following code.

        switch ( hobby ) {
            case =" painting ":
                message = "Van Gogh was good at that.";
                    break;
            case =" drawing ":
                message = "Hey! Van Gogh did that too.";
                    break;
            case =" playing guitar ":
                message = "Bob Dylan played guitar.";
                    break;
            case =" sleeping in ":
                message = "My favorite hobby in the winter.";
                    break;

            default
        }

Does anyone see what I am missing?

Answer 1

Your syntax is off. Remove the = after cases. Also, you’ll need to put a : after default.
