Be careful of the parenthesis around the variable you're switching on. If you accidentally use braces instead (ex: switch {_myVar} do{...), it won't error, but will always return default.

Using switch with strings is case-sensitive, (unlike string comparisons).

General Barron

To be safe about the case sensitivity issue, use the toLower or toUpper command to force all strings to a certain case.
