title: Switch expression
---
# Description
Probably a better idea to use [match](20201113121813-match_expression).
# Syntax
``` php
switch ($this->lexer->lookahead['type']) {
case Lexer::T_SELECT:
$statement = $this->SelectStatement();
break;
case Lexer::T_UPDATE:
$statement = $this->UpdateStatement();
break;
case Lexer::T_DELETE:
$statement = $this->DeleteStatement();
break;
default:
$this->syntaxError('SELECT, UPDATE or DELETE');
break;
}
```
