Can we use a switch statement to switch on strings?
Answer: Option B
The cases in a switch must either have integer constants or constant expressions.

|I guess it works on strings.
We can write cases in the form of "case 'a':".

|We can use switch along with string as a case also.|

When we say case'a' its means a charcter not a string.
And switch dnt work on string.

|Why not character be a string because string is nothing but collection of characters?|
|Dheeraj Bajpai said: (Jun 13, 2013)|
|Yes, it is true that string is collection of chars but it creates difference in the point of memory (char=1 byte, string=size of array). So string is not allowed.|

|char is write like 'a'. But string is write like "a".|
|Pravin Pandhare said: (Aug 21, 2016)|
|Here, we can write only char and int constant.|
