Learn Programming in Java - Lesson 09 : Switch / If-Else Ladder

This lesson, a continuation of lesson 08 explores two more branching structures in Java: the switch statement and the if-else ladder. In the example from this lesson we write a program which converts a date like 2/23 into a string like "February 23rd." In the second half of the episode we'll cover enumerations, explaining the benefits of making your own data type and values.

This exercise would have been so much easier if the first three ordinal numbers were were "firth, " "seconth, " and "thirth."

Thanks for your helpful lessons but I am a beginner in learning java programing and I wonder how to import the projects that you imported from the Github to the Neatbean? Indeed I don not know how to import projects into Neatbeans; every time I tried I encountered to some errors.

Hi Mike, thanks very much for the lessons it's really very helpful.
I wanted to ask a question regarding the switch case statements in Activity 3, the public method value() in the ATMmenu enum should return a string ... I was trying to use this string in the case statement but it was wrong syntax then I created a variable string that holds the value of the enum and tried to use it in the comparison but it also didn't work. please see below
.
.
String Choice = input.nextLine();
String withdrawal = ATMMenu.Withdrawl.Value();

switch (Choice)
{
  case withdrawal: ---> wrong Syntax



String Choice = input.nextLine();

switch (Choice)
{
  case ATMmenu.Withdrawl.Value(): ---> wrong Syntax also.



is there any workaround for this or I should use only constant values (not variables) in the switch case statements ?

how would you determine the month number to the month name? Like if the user input an 6 then input June and it will match or not match?

you have mistake day%10==1  should be all together, or it brings error
