I'm having a hard time figuring out how to answer 2 of the questions in this quiz. The first one is completing a switch statement and the other problem relates to writing a multiple if else statement function.

to chain if statements together you need to use the else if keyword. you start the chain with and if, connect ifs together with and if else, and then end the chain with an else.

if (x == 1) {

} else if (x == 3) {

} else if (x == 4) {

} else {

}

switch statements generally look like this:

switch (someVariable) {

case 1:
    some statement;
    break;
case 2:
   some statement;
    break;
default:
    some statement;
    break;

}
