Convert the following if statements into a switch statement:if (time == 0){greeting = "Good morning";}else if (time == 1){greeting = "Good day";}else if (time = 2){greeting = "Good evening";}else if (time == 3){greeting = "Good night";}
Write a program using if statement instead of switch statement. x=2; switch x case 1;    disp(‘One’) case 2;    disp(‘Two’) case 3;    disp(‘Three’) otherwise; disp(‘Unknown Number’) end
Rewrite the following if-else-if statement as a switch statement.if (selection == 1){    MessageBox.Show("You selected 1.");}else if (selection == 2){    MessageBox.Show("You selected 2.");}else if (selection == 3){    MessageBox.Show("You selected 3.");}else if (selection == 4){    MessageBox.Show("You selected 4.");}else{    MessageBox.Show("Not good with numbers, eh?");}
