It worked for me. This is what it printed:

Wear sunscreen
Enjoy your day!

import Foundation

let weather = "sunny"

switch weather {
    case "rain":
    print("Bring an umbrella")
    case "snow":
    print("Wrap up warm")
    case "sunny":
    print("Wear sunscreen")
    fallthrough 
    default: 
    print("Enjoy your day!")
}
// Prints - Wear sunscreen
//          Enjoy your day!

how do you want the switch statement to behave? To call the default block in all cases? In that case, you have to add fallthrough in each case, excluding the default one.

	@roosterboy HWS+ Feb '22 this seems to be the only chat people care about You posted the same thing in three threads within 15 minutes of each other. You have to give people a chance to answer before assuming nobody cares. This code aint workin'. What does this mean? What do you expect it to do? What is it doing instead? You gotta give us something more to work with when asking a question. Just like @vtabmow, your code worked fine for me. 3
	@SwiftCodingg Feb '22 All I got was [Running] swift "c:\Swift\bin\Switch Statements.swift" [Done] exited with code=0 in 6.002 seconds. I'm doing this on windows and using visual studios 2022 2
	@SwiftCodingg Feb '22 Yeah, sorry. I'm using visual studios 2022 on windows 10 to do this. It should work but all I get is it started running and then ended. 2
	@roosterboy HWS+ Feb '22 Your code is fine. So look to Visual Studio for the issue. Maybe there's a setting for displaying `print` output that is disabled? I really don't know what exactly it is, but the issue isn't in your code. 2
	@SwiftCodingg Feb '22 Alright, I'll look into updates, settings, anything I can find. 2
	@vtabmow Feb '22 Sounds like your code is running, you're just not seeing the output like @roosterboy is saying. Print shows up in the debug window. Try Ctrl+G maybe. 2
	@SwiftCodingg Feb '22 This may sound weird @vtabmow but whats ur email, I tried ctrl+G, didnt work. I wanna send you pics on what it looks like. 2
	@vtabmow Feb '22 You can post pics here. See this link: https://www.hackingwithswift.com/forums/100-days-of-swiftui/how-do-i-add-my-screenshot/12652/12653 2
	@SwiftCodingg Feb '22 NVM!! It worked finally, dunno what I did, if I did anything. 2
	@roosterboy HWS+ Feb '22 Mine is a snip-it. You can save those on your computer and then post using the instructions linked above. It's always best to post images to the forum unless the other person agrees to have them sent. Not everyone wants to give out their email address, twitter handle, etc. 2
	@SwiftCodingg Feb '22 Yes thank you, I didn't know you could do it with snip it. 2
