Hallo!

Is there a function to help me out to test a condition without a 'cascade' of 'else(s)'? Like a "case"? I'm trying hard to find out a solution using the build-in help/manual and could not find a "case" statement. Thank you in advance.

r = randint(1,3)
if r == 1:
        print 'One.'
if r == 2:
        print 'Two.'
if r == 3:
        print 'Three.'

Sage uses the Python programming language, and there is no case statement in Python, instead it is recommended to use if elif elif ..., see:

This is a Python question ... and, unsurprisingly, it has been asked before, though I don't think on this forum.
