Question

I am trying to figure out (if possible) how to read through NSDictionay key/values with a switch statement instead of a for loop.

currently I am doing this

for (id key in seriesData) {

    NSLog(@"key: %@, value: %@", key, [seriesData objectForKey:key]);

}

However I would like it to be a switch statement where I look for the key, if the key is found then i put that value into a variable i will use later.

hope this makes sense, any help would be greatly appreciated.

The C switch statement only applies to integer-like keys (which includes enum). It is not possible to use switch with Objective-C objects, such as those found in an NSDictionary.
