does python have a case statement

In Python, there is no built-in switch or case statement like in some other programming languages. However, you can achieve similar functionality using if-elif-else statements or dictionaries. In this tutorial, we will explore both approaches.
In this example, we define a function switch_case_example that takes a value and uses if-elif-else statements to simulate the behavior of a switch-case statement.
In this example, we define functions for each case and a switch_case_dict function that uses a dictionary to map values to functions. The get method is used to retrieve the corresponding function, and if the key is not found, it falls back to the default_case function.
Choose the approach that best fits your needs. The if-elif-else statements might be more readable for a small number of cases, while the dictionary approach is more scalable and allows for dynamic case handling.
